You'll have to sue them, but even if you win I bet you will not get anything. The reason I say even if you win is because I bet the facts and what your investment are will get fuzzy very fast. For example, even the e-mail you've posted says there will be a further communication with the actual deal.

If there is no risk, you shouldn't earn money on the investment. Use that as a general rule regarding business deals which are too good to be true.
