If it’s a scam I can’t see how he expects to cash in.

Sure: attract "investors", and fleece, fleece, fleece....

Well of course of everyone knows it’s a scam he won’t be able to cash in.

All he has to do is collect deposits from the "five year's worth of customers" that Kevmo claims he has, then skip town.

A more elaborate solution is to collect money from investors and customers, then convince them that the company has failed through no fault of his. Then pocket the money he never actually spent on trying to make them work.

Rossi has created a unique, world-class climate of expectation based on a year-long publicity campaign (all the while he claimed he didn't want publicity). Now, it's time to cash in.

I'm sure at this point, he could collect millions on the promise that he will deliver an E-Cat at some time in the future (even years in the future, since he's so overwhelmed with orders). He's been convicted of fraud several times in the past, and has run a number of very suspicious previous "revolutionary new invention" companies, so he has plenty of experience to draw upon.

“If it’s a scam I can’t see how he expects to cash in.”

How does any scam artist, like Rossi, expect to cash in?

Unfortunately for large cash suckers the money is gone even if the criminal is behind bars. Look at Madoff. He suckered billions of dollars for years.
