I still can’t believe it. I mean they were one of the biggest cloud miners out there and now even their website is not taken. I mean how do you go from that to this? I think this is just purely showing us how evil people can get. Ruining your whole career by just scamming some people, I don’t think it even worth it.

Fact is this has never been a cloud mining operator but just a big ponzi scheme well marketed. I'm sure these scammers never had a single miner or a factory,they were really good at making this huge before leave with all their users' money. I wonder how much they stole in the end.
I don’t know, they used to pay out some people to make it more credible, if it is like you said and it was a ponzi that means they paid some people from other peoples Money, so they didn’t take it all, they reinvested some to make it credible.

Altough if they took all the cash out in the end, it must be something small compared to whatever was deposited in total.

As you can see from hotwalets :

There was 45307 bitcoins deposited in total or more then 50 million USD at current bitcoin value, so even few percent is millions of USD i do not think it`s small amount.
It`s more then enough for some serious investigation.
They withdraw what was left in wallets 4 days ago.
Most of coins from hot wallets was moved to new wallet :
