I'm sorry, but your money is long gone. This is an old scam known as the "advanced fee loan scam." You can read about this type of scam at the FTC website www.ftc.gov.
FYI, it is ILLEGAL in the U.S. to charge any "insurance, collateral, prepayments, etc" for any consumer loan.
At this point you should report this to the FBI IC3 site and the RCMP.
These scum use throw away cell phones and constantly move about to stay one step ahead of law enforcement. The chances of you getting your money back are slim to none.

What an addle minded MORON you are !! It's ILLEGAL for ANY financial institution to ask for money UPFRONT for a personal loan. DO YOU NOT KNOW THIS ???????
This scam has been exposed on EVERY TV station, radio station and newspaper in the USA over the past several years, not to mention the VAST exposure on the Internet. Do you not pay attention to what's going on around you ????? Not only that, but there are signs posted all over the Moneygram location telling you NOT to send your money to these scammers. Can you not read ??? And to top off your complete stupidity, the warning is printed ONCE AGAIN on the very form that you filled out. JUST HOW STUPID ARE YOU ??????? Geezzzzz.
Are you so ignorant that you believe these warnings don't apply to you ???? It's no wonder that this country is in the shape that it's in with cretins such as YOU running around like a chicken with its head cut off. WAKE UP, you idiot, and stop giving your money away to scammers.
