Though I hate to mention lawyers... But maybe there is
a lawyer in our group that would consider putting
together a class action lawsuit against these
individuals that scammed so many. Everyone that has
purchased this skillfully made "meteorwrong" sold as a
"meteorite" should consider this.

The judge in the case could then assess damages over
the actual loss of finances.
