Why not? Seems like a waste of time and $. If they get the $50k or $650k back, they at least have a chance at civil forfeiture.

How are the cops going to catch someone in Russia, China, Iran, NK, or any of the other countries who turn a blind eye to cyber crime schemes? I doubt they will even be able to find a single person to arrest much less a real identity.

Drugs are right there in front of the cops most of the time.
