Your logic is curious. BJ and JL are two guys who have very little in the way of real-world work experience or professional credentials. They're each taking a living from this current scam, but your logic is that if they were professional scammers, they should have found a better scam.
Maybe they could be better fraudsters... but this one is doing the job. They've had hapless investors funding their livelihoods for YEARS, based on an unverifiable story told about a far-away place. Even the disclosures are very clear on how little has ever been reviewed by independent counsel.
Maybe there's a better scam out there. Maybe they're still looking to find it. But for now, they've had a pretty good run at promoting this one. Last I looked, many millions have already been burned on MSX's books.
And as one final note, you mention the Fitzgerald suit: this previous scam became BJ's livelihood for years before JL was even in the picture, proving once again that the scam itself doesn't really need to be all that good... it just needs to work long enough until the next one comes along.
