How to get these iphone scammers in trouble?

OK so yeah they got me told me about how they buy the phones pay me to buy them and such well thing i didn't know was about the contract i thought i was just there to buy the iPhones cause they get them at a discounted price for new customers well i signed the contract and they paid me $150 dollars i didn't say anything or do anything cause for all i know they could threaten my life i was upset after i figured out what they had done so i did some thinking on how i can get these guys so i thought i can have the phones reported stolen since they are mine get them back sell them myself and pay to get out of the contract with them I'd pay out of the contract now if i had the money! So is that a good idea or should i just report these people to the police for fraud cause what i heard and read upon online is that they don't do much for you if you just report it as a fraud can someone please tell me how i can get out this mess!

I assume that you fell for the same scam as shown in the link. If you gave your ID and your SSN to strangers, then you are screwed. You could just refuse to pay AT&T, which will damage your credit rating. Or you could pay the money, accept the loss, and keep your credit rating intact. But even if you choose to pay up, what is to stop the same people from using your ID and SSN again?

I can't believe that anybody would give up their SSN for $150. Why on earth did you do this?

Note that technically this is not a fraud, because you gave up your SSN willingly. It is as if somebody paid you $150 to write a blank check, then they cleaned out your bank account. Since no law was broken, there's no point in going to the police. The police only prosecute lawbreakers.
