Plaintiffs proved on unchallenged evidence that US$75,000 was transferred as a result of cyberfraud, the transfer is traceable to the 1st defendant's account, the 1st defendant received and was enriched by the sum, no defence was put forward, and equity requires that the 1st defendant hold the traced funds (and proportionate accrued interest) on constructive trust for the plaintiffs; accordingly summary judgment and declaratory relief were appropriate with quantified pro rata allocations and assessed costs.
