this POS convinced her to send money to his "associates" via PayPal to "friends & family" so we could not dispute with PayPal and she does not use PayPal and did not know!

@Barnoshabs she did not know what...? That's an awful lot of money to just "not know" you're giving to other people.

@Starcrossed she actually was instructed to give small amounts to multiple random people she did not know by the scammer, e.g. $1500 here and $2500 here and $5000 here...the ultimate goal according to the scammer was give 10% of $70K and he will give her $70K and she can then keep $20K...she was just trying to help him and said I only want the money back I gave you and not any more.

@Barnoshabs she wanted her money back so she gave more?
