I wouldn't take this case to Judge Judy, she'll yell at OP and rip him or her to fucking shreds for giving money to a stranger off an internet dating website and OP will be demoralized for months if not years and will likely require counseling smh

You can't sue the shit out of them (that implies suing them for very large amounts) and getting a lawyer involved would be kind of absurd.. It's 100 bucks. A lawyer probably won't even give you a half used kleenex for 100 bucks.
Unless these people can be tied to a scam ring of some sort where they've scammed thousands of dollars, this is just petty theft at best. It's a fine, and maybe some community service if the judge feels like being an asshole. That's the judicial side, you can then sue them in small claims (civil) but you're not going to be getting thousands of dollars out of them. If the court house isn't just down the street from you or something and you get paid more than minimum wage, you're going to probably spend as much in gas and lost wages to take it to court, as you stand to get back, if you even win, and if they even pay up.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

I find it even harder to believe that higher up law organizations would even get involved. Would probably need dozens of people filing reports before they'd so much as ask their supervisor if they should check it out or some shit.
Yeah slip the more I think about it, you're probably right. There's some grey area involved, and not to mention the amount of money in question isn't going to exactly move their proverbial needle much.

That's why you offer them another hundred through another account, lure them to a dark alley, and work on your homerun swing against their head with that used Louisville Slugger you copped off Ebay.

Public embarrassment is the way to go! I'm telling ya! Record the people responding on the dating site to multiple fake accounts. Record them showing up some where and call them out. Make sure you can get clear video of the person(s) face!
Take a screen shot from the video, go to a printing zone (in my town we have a few places that will make signs for cheap) or use the internet to have some made.
Put their photo on the sign, with words like "DON'T GET SCAMMED" "KNOWN SHAMMER!", add the dating website the scammer is on/ the URL. If you cant have signs made for cheap, print that shit on regular paper and put it all over town just like the "lost dog signs".

I mean this is okay and all but I still think the Louisville Slugger route would be the more effective of the two.

You could rob them back..you have all of their information and it wouldn't be hard to lure them.
Jus sayin...

But isn't it more embarrassing to have people know you gave money to a stranger from the Internet?

If OP was of the mind to be able to rob them back or uppercut them, I think he would've already did it, instead of thinking about calling the cops.

The cops are gonna just laugh at OP and tell him there is nothing they can do guaranteed.
They are not gonna go on some CSI mission and take finger prints and track these guys down.

It would be but you don't wanna hurt no one because of legal problems. I'm sure some one could try to sue you for putting their picture every where but fuck em they can't prove it was you. I suppose you could mug em to and get away with it!
If one was concerned tho just wear a hoodie with some sun glasses. Maybe even a wig. I have two wigs for hiding my identity if I need to for weird shit like this. I know it sounds crazy but they are cheap on ebay.. like $3 free shipping and handling!
Something else OP could do that would cause major problems is claim to the scammer threw a fake account "Oh your broke? I feel so bad I help people all the time threw charity at my local church. I'm currently staying with a friend so I can't have you over here, please let me come to you. Ill even bring free gift cards to redlobster I got from my church."
Convince them to give a address and phone number. Now what you do from here is get their photo. Maybe they are using a real one from the dating website. Just get it if you can get the address it should be possible.
Take their photo and information and post it on the deepweb on sites like the PinkMeth. Put the phone number, address and photo's. You can even explain why you are adding them to the list, people will be persuaded to take action.
You can edit the face into other images to make them nude

Maybe. He should probably stay away from fast food places if he unleashes that dragon.. Bad shit has been known to happen to people who constantly get shit on and walk into fast food places with an attitude.
