This is both scary and upsetting. I supposed that I really was naive to not know it was going on in the first place, but it's really an eye opener to see just how easily the switch can occur!
I know this is kind of obvious....but if you paid with a credit card, have you tried to get the card company to reverse the charge? I know from experience that amex has been very helpful to me and my dad in dealing with fraudulent purchases.
Anyway, I wish the best to you both and hope that you're able to really nail the 'bad guy' even though I know it won't be easy.
