Transit card Fraud or scam Pennsylvania

-/-/15 I was a victim of a IRS scam, some - called me and I fall for it and purchased the prepaid cards - it and them the numbers of the - prepaid cards, an around two hours later I realized it was a scam so I called the number in the back of the cards, a CSR inform me the the money was on the cards and she ( - ) was putting a stop on the cards. I was happy as thinking did n't loose my money and everything was fine just like she said, also she give me a ITS number of the claim and explain the it will take - to - business day to send me a check, I explain the situation and ask her if she was sure the sto payment was done because this was a time sensitive situation and she said yes. Week latter I called the company to seek the status of my claim and the inform me they only put a stop on - cards and the - of them were redeem, they only can return the money on those cards and the rest was lost because the cards area like cash, I did understand that but when I called them the money was there and they supposedly put a stop, if they would it told that the stop would take time, I could redeem the cards my self and get my money back but the make me believe that my money was save and I believe them because after searched their name it seem like a legitimate company. The are regulated by the federal government, and license from - - - - - - FDIC. I feel the this company is as guilty as the people how called me, or more because they deliberated did n't inform me of the time a stop would take, on the other hand the make me believe the money was save and everything was fine that I should just wait for my money to come in the mail.
