It's a natural problem with an industry like this, where the accounts are opened without identity checks. Even IF the account in question is frozen, the scam will continue. The thief will simply give a new account number to his next victim, and immediately remove the money from the system as soon as he receives it. It's the same problem that any money transmitter has, even Western Union, American Express, and others. The solution is for law enforcement to track some of these thieves down, to scare the rest away. However, when I called the Secret Service a couple of years ago, they told me that they will NOT investigate any case of internet fraud, unless there is evidence that the thief took more than $25,000. That's the limit and it's too high.
