Misleading headline? Or Iam I missing something
 
Gold Coast couple lost $7 million in online financial scam

If their property was repossessed and that was not worth what they owed how could they lose $7 million? I can only see $30,000 scam for "valuations"

Reading between the lines, I think that includes the developments and properties that were repossessed to repay the $6.7 loans that were "arranged".
