The problem is if Ratimov returned the money; in case he didn't return then the question is if he will return them -- especially seeing that he is offline for 4 days already.
I am sure that was not the real Ratimov, he is long gone, and now person who purchased account from him is also gone (most likely).
As much as original Ratimov was not perfect I don't think he would ever become scammer like this.
Let's calculate how much this guy earned... for six months of doing nothing, it was probably between $3600 and $6000 worth of Bitcoin.
Doing individual deal with account like this that changed hands was very high risk.
