Hi Rumbly and congratulations

You are one of the few newbies who got scammed but realised soon after, unlike most that either do not know they've been had or come to this forum in "righteous" anger looking for somebody to blame for their own stupidity.

When reading through this forum, and coming across the "victims of scam sites", it is sometimes difficult to sympathise with them because they seem so eager to throw their money away without knowing who or what they're throwing it at.

A simple common sense approach to scammers flashy adverts should tell people that what is on offer is too good to be true. And if it is too good to be true then it is more than likely it does not exist.

Nevertheless, I am glad when someone realises that they have been scammed, either by luck, common sense kicking in or coming to this forum for help, and then tries to get they're money back.

However be warned, not everyone who has been scammed gets their money back, some people have had to put down their rash act to experience (lack of).
