Panicked and used Digital Forensics

They can't really help you... then they'll tell you "we're dealing with a professional criminal organization, the only way forward is to move on to phase 2" which is like a million dollars. I was starting to calm down but now I'm freaking out again. I feel they are just as bad as my scammer, but yea I'm not going to pay them anything else I don't think. If anything I think they made things worse 😰 kinda freaking out...
