He was scamming people and blowing some of the money on gambling, this is not really talked about but the reason I posted it on the gambling discussion. Gambling does not respect anyone at all, even the scammer likely lost money to gambling is the reason ZachXBT posted that the scammer was blowing part of the money on gambling.
Easy come easy go. He got the money fraudulently, it would be easy for him to spend it carelessly. There are many stories of these criminals lavishing money on expensive cars, holidays, and clothing. Everyone wants more money, so he thinks he could use gambling to double his ill-gotten fortune. The people he has scammed would have to bear the losses since he blew the money on gambling, clubbing, and other activities. He should spend some time in prison for his crimes.
