They'll take every dime this guy has, if it turns out to be a fraud. The Feds will particularly aggressively investigate such a prominent case. Such public cases make the Feds look bad (from their point of view), especially if they don't get the people responsible, so they tend to pursue them rigorously. They'll inevitably find something he did wrong, and he'll end up in the same spot that Holmes is in, spending all his time trying to weasel out of a prison sentence.
