In the US...if you are charged with some online scam, where the case is flimsy to begin with, can you pay off the money you supposedly owe and avoid a trial? Or do they make you go to trial for sure? If you get convicted at the trial, do they definitely give you jail time or can you get off with some fines?
Anyone who knows the mechanics of how it works. I was set up by someone I trusted who used my ebay and paypal and bank account information to pull scams that i am now watned for. The net amount is 30,000 dollars. Can anyone help? What'[s the worst I can expect?

You have 30K ? Hire an attorney to work out a settlement for you.
If you don't have money, call the bar association, tell them you need some free ( pro bono help ) . If you are indigent and you are charged, they have to provide counsel.
Don't play around, this sounds serious.
