I got scammed out of my money, how do i get it back?

I recently bought an iPhone 5 off craigslist for $350 from a person named Gemma Joffroy from Montreal, Canada saying she would ship the phone to me through a company called Cargo Force. I had just found out that it was a scam, and i will not get my phone. If you google the persons name, "Gemma Joffroy" you will see many search results saying this person scams people for their money. I would like to know if there's anyway i can get my money back, or report this person to someone to help get my money back or catch this person? I saved all the emails between us and Cargo Force. People have almost got themselves into the situation i'm in now, but did not go through with the deal. I went through with the deal and when my phone did not get delivered to me, i then decided to search her. I know i should have searched about this before but i didn't. I would not like to hear that there's nothing i can do about it because i know there has to be something. I really need your help.
