Total money lost $150

Type of a scam Online Purchase

he added a picture online of an Iphone 6 plus for $175. So he would for sure get people who would like to buy it. he told me i could give him $150 if i do it at that moment and through pay-pal. I downloaded the app and he told me what to do because I’m only 18 and i was new to the app. he told me when I sent the transaction to make sure i clicked friends and family. Being new to the app and him telling me he was on his way to the post office i believed him and went ahead and sent the money. After i sent the money he stopped responding to me and i never got my item or money back and when i messaged him on a different account he did not know i had he responded saying he was still selling the Iphone. that led me to know he took my money and i wont be getting the money or the phone. I contacted pay-pal and told them the exact same thing and they informed me that due to clicking friends and family i was unable to get my money back.
