Default I was recently scammed...


Recently I fell prey to one of the scams that ask you to cash checks for an overseas company. I never had anyone ask for my bank information, and I had never heard of counterfeit money orders before, so I did not think that this might be a fishy situation.
However, I am now in the process of having my bank accounts closed because the money orders were depostited after I had sent the funds.
Luckily, I figured something was funny when the second amount was sent to me for three times as much money.
Unfortunately, I didn't figure this out in time to have the bank chargeback the money withdrawn...
I have never before felt so stupid, but I wanted to ask if there was someone I could report my situation to that might be able to stop the people who scammed me?
