This case will not be brought with federal charges. After Chan made restitution it just didn't warrant federal charges. That's not my opinion that is the authorities opinion. This will have to be done at the local police level if anyone wants to go there. Charges would probably (correct me lawyers if I am wrong) need to be brought by someone he scammed. I don't know the law well enough but the first step would be to get a hold of local authorities ( I guess where the scammer lives or the plaintiffs live) and see if they want to go with it. Personally I think he should get more than an informal warning with no legal action. regards
edited to add- I am in no way speaking for any agency or anyone but me. When I said above it's the authorities opinion I should have said it's actually my opinion of how they might view the situation.
