Determining location of scammer

I was scammed (cash deposited in bitcoin ATM depot sent to digital wallet) and I did a bunch of research and found the transaction in the bitcoin blockchain using a blockchain explorer. Is there any information to glean from what I’ve found? I know I won’t be able to find the person but the one thing I hope to find out is if they were oversees or in the states? Because I have reported to law enforcement but there is nothing they can do if it’s oversees. I can see they already took money out of the bitcoin account. I have the transaction type, scriptpubkey, and “address” (digital) of who spent it, and all other information blockchain explorers give to you. Is there anything I can do? submitted by /u/No-Soft-8810 [link] [comments]
