You just have to keep passing the blame, Logan Paul claims he didn't intend to scam people and was himself scammed by the developers he hired and that is why his project never materialized.
The difference between running a scam and running a failing business is just a matter of intent, which is hard to prove.

Perhaps in some cases but "running a failing business" becomes fraud when you start lying, even if your intentions are "good".

You have to prove they lied. I.e. that they knew they were defrauding customers, which goes to intent. Though I suppose it could be lying only later, in the cover up -- if Logan was stupid/lazy enough to trust dishonest people to build his game then deny or renege on refunds.
Regardless I imagine we'll find out soon as he sues CoffeeZilla since he may be countersued or be otherwise unmasked in discovery. CZ already has videos of Logan saying CZ is a stand up guy who does good reporting.
