Domestic (US) money transfer Fraud or scam Virginia

I was the victim of a wire transfer scam involving a business 's Wells Fargo Bank account. It was demanded of me that I wire, no other method was provided, $67000.00 to the following Wells Fargo Bank Account on - -, 2016 : -, - - - - -, FL -. The Bank Wiring Instructions were as follows : Bank Information : Wells Fargo - - - - - - , FL - ( - ) - Name on Account : -, LLC Account Number : - Routing Number : -. This was a 'scam ' and a fraudulent wire transfer and there are numerous complaints against this business for these wire transfer 'scams '. Wells Fargo has a fiduciary duty to prevent and address such abuses by their business clients upon consumers. In addition, I am learning that transfers of these magnitude trigger many Financial Institution and IRS investigations. Per FTC Reference # -, I was instructed to contact my own Bank to try to have this Wire transfer reversed and the Wells Fargo business client refused. My Bank has now opened a Financial Crimes Investigation.
