In my view the webhost has no moral or legal obligation to you. However I would go after the old owner more. Warn them that you are only going to wait 72 hours or so and that at the very least you are considering contacting the authorities in their local jurisdiction for possible fraud case. I know here in Florida misrepresenting something like this in writing can easily be seen as fraud. Also warn that you are considering other legal action. Offer a payment plan maybe. Then here is the key, FOLLOW THROUGH! At the very least make an effort to track them down and contact the local sheriff or whatever other authority there is. There is a very good chance that authority will contact them in some way and that will probably be enough to make them shit their pants. The same for contact from your attorney. Then you will probably get your money.
