How do you get money back from someone who stole it?

You have two options. One, you can file a lawsuit against them and have it served on them. It will be your burden of proof to show that they took your money. If you didn't have a contract, or if you didn't have any witnesses, filing a lawsuit might be a waste of your time and money.

What happens when someone steals money?

FindLaw states that the court may charge you with theft for embezzling money. The court can charge you with a misdemeanor or felony depending on the amount of money taken. You may also face additional penalties and fines for subsequent charges.

Can you trace stolen cash?

Cash can not be traced. While they do have serial numbers, there is no way to keep track of who owns that bill. This is why criminals typically pay with cash. Credit Cards and Bank Accounts can be traced.
