'Nothing can be done' for Olympic ticket scam victims

'Nothing can be done' for Olympic ticket scam victims : "Thousands of people worldwide are believed to have bought fake tickets from the bogus US-based website beijingticketing.com."

It's 2008. We are supposed to be global, international, multinational, technological and on the Net. It is not an unusual thing for people to buy online but if anything goes wrong then we are held responsible for our "stupidity". 2008, folks. Online purchases need to be normal and safe. Scammers need to be dealt with and they need to feel our anger for stuffing up what can be a very easy way of doing things...and isn't that the whole point? This has all been done on a computer. I am sure they will be able to trace it like they have found hackers and scammers before. I think the penalties need to be high for those who stuff up 2008. We should not be feeling stupid because we are embracing the new way of doing things.
