3000 m² leased for 10 years to expand the company in Frankfurt. So much money that CR will not pocket. He's not a very good crook. Why invest so much while the scam is already working so well ?

I'm not saying he is crook, but the constant scope creep, and glacially slow development, lead me to question his motives. IMO, he's in WAY over his head. A 100+ systems, plus all the stuff that was promised? Impossible to do within a reasonable time frame.
BTW, a
clever crook will
not grab a few million and make a run for it. A clever crook
will keep the money rolling in,
delivering just enough that not too many get cold feet. A German building magnate called Juergen Schneider skimmed BILLIONS. When he was finally found out, he owed FIVE BILLION MARK (5.000.000.000 Mark!). How? Well, he strung his clients, business partners, and banks along, delivering a little, and promising ever more, often by lying and using fabricated "evidence" (thinking of pretty videos promising game loops which are not even thought of yet? Good.).
