Get money back?. HA!.. that ain't gonna happen.
You should report scams to:
*** Your local police station. They may also advice you what to do and where to report further.
*** FBI. They have a special Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3)
http://www.ic3.gov/
*** Nigerian scams you can also report to a special organization created in Nigeria to fight 419 and other financial cybercrime, EFCC: The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
http://www.efccnigeria.org
*** Russian scams you can (and should!) report to the following 2 places:
1) FSB, aka FSS (Federal Security Service). This organization is similar to FBI in Russia.

Please note, this website is in Russian. You can use online translator, for example http://freetranslation.paralink.com/ to translate the page (recommended). The e-mail you can use is fsb@fsb.ru.
2) Another place to report Russian scammers is MVD of Russia, aka MOI (Ministry of the Interior of Russia). This is like the headquarters of Russian Police:

Send your message through "Public Reception" center. They have a special so-called department "K" dedicated to fight cybercrime.
