Is this type of scam also common within Europe? I mean, scammers from or located in Europe.

While this type of scam was first detected in South-East Asia, evidence has since come to light of similar schemes being orchestrated from the Eastern Europe/Western Asia Caucasus state of Georgia and other countries across the world. The victims, however, are targeted on a truly global scale. With the internet being used as the vehicle of scam delivery, it is difficult to predict where the next victim will be.

If some victims told the authorities, can the authorities do a quick investigation, and if found they are scammers, can the authorities ban their APPS or websites in US?

This is Not a crypto currency crime. There is never crypto purchased by the victim. The crypto platform is a ruse!! The scam is so much less technical

A scam of this type can use any type of currency, whether crypto or otherwise, and the various scam tactics range from low tech and basic, right up to state-of-the-art technical deceptions. The only constant throughout each instance is the presence of a devastated victim.
