depends actually, if scammer is in East Msia and you are from West Msia (or the other way around), it will be difficult. Who has the time to fly over and look for the person involved?

i was scammed once, and the police officers immediately told me to let go of the case. they said, the tactic is to use (borrow) children's account (16-18years old & sometimes maybe younger) for the payment account. once the money is banked into the child's account, the scammer withdraws the money from the account (using ATM card or ask the child to use bank book), pay a small commission to the child (RM50) and RUN! if you lodge a report against the child, the child is still innocent because he does not know what his account is used for.
