Sites like these thrive on two kinds of people: The Unaware and The Desperate.
I was from the first type, you hear a story that's too good to be true, but not too good to be a lie, you decide that if you win, it'll be big. You imagine yourself already won, and you start doing stupid stuff that your brain wouldn't normally agree with.
The desperate type is where these scams show their evil side. People who need money quickly for a life-or-death situation, are psychologically unable to make wise decisions. If you give them good enough promises, they won't have time to look at everything logically from all sides. They're desperate, not stupid, and scammers know that...
(You really have to lack empathy to steal someone's money knowing you're killing them.)
Your sitation now is that you lost the money you started with. Do you have any way to get out of this situation? Write them down, even the ideas that aren't possible... Is there a friend/family/acuintance that can help with even $1 of these? How much time do you have? Write the ideas that require double or triple that time... At least writing them on paper will make you think about your situation more calmly.
I can't help with more than kind words and suggestions... If you found a way that doesn't require too much money to start, please reply with your plan under this comment and I might help. (Mybe not with money, but with ideas.)
