The article really doesn’t say what happened after they found their fraudsters, and they don’t even say that they actually identified a real person. They suspect that it’s several people, but is it? They didn’t get the guys money back.
They gave the information to the police because that's all they can do as citizens. He didn't get his money back and the information they found on the fraudsters could very well be just money mules or also victims of hackers.
