ICO has been very popular for free money, the government really have to step up with their stance.  I have seen that one ICO end up with a word "penis" for the investors. I think its called Prodeum.

It is extremely worrying what is going on with Tether in the short term, but I doubt it's going to stop ICOs or hurt bitcoin's viability in the longer term.  If it turns out that Tether was just one big scam then it's going to make it harder for people to scam with fake ICOs in the future as it will put people on their toes and will want much more transparency before investing.

I am new to crypto-currency and notice all these different ICO and IBO offers here and else where. Ran into some that look scammy and read about past scams.

This leads me to the question,

Has any legal action ever been taking against any individuals involved in these scams. If so can someone link me an article or give me the name of the coin.

This market reminds me of the online poker market where these fly by poker sites open up and steal peoples money and sometimes big sites do as well ... with little to no recourse.

25 Oct 2014 - Syscoin did the right thing for its investors during its presale by entrusting its coins to an escrow service, and they should be rewarded for their responsibility–not punished. Hopefully, the injunction will prompt Kennedy to return the stolen bitcoins. If not, Kennedy will have to face the British legal system.
