Going after ANY scammer(s) FIRST requires some effort on YOUR part... (by KC):

I have quite a detailed explanation and copies of everything, good enough that I got my money back from my credit card company and Paypal. Does this mean I can file a complaint with both the state of Florida and California?

Your complaint should be filed ONLY with the state(s) in which the scammer operation is actually based and conducted. A state AG office only has jurisdiction over matters occuring within its' own state. It matters not at all where YOU might live.

Since you reportedly got all your money back already, YOUR complaint would likely be regarded only as "informational" by investigators. In other words, you certainly wouldn't ever see any MORE money in the future by filing a formal complaint.

That said however, since so many received "complaints" are incomplete, inarticulate, poorly documented, disorganized (...and quite often ALL of the above) a clear, precise and well organized complaint will ALWAYS be welcomed by investigators, since well documented complaints provide investigators with useful insights into the m.o. and patterns of the parasite operations, facilitating investigation and perhaps enabling them to shut down the parasites completely all that much sooner. Go for it!
