Welcome to ScamWarners dedeyne. Unfortunately there is no way to retrieve your money once it has been picked up. There is no way to know who the scammer really is. The email address they use is not connected to who they really are.

Please be aware that some scammers take advantage of people who have lost money to scammers. These are are Recovery scams, and you can read more about them here: viewforum.php?f=14

The best thing you can do to hurt a scammer is post their information up here like you have.
