Edwin's Family Needs Urgent Housing Help

My name is Edwin. My wife and I have 3 kids and we’ve been in a situation where we were looking for a house that suits us. Found the place and turned out to be a scam from Facebook Marketplace, unfortunately I was really desperate to have somewhere my kids can call home and over the course of 2 days and false paperwork, I paid out $3,295. I’m not fortunate enough to lose that kind of money so now we’re on the verge of being homeless in a few days. I will be using the money to wisely find a place with help of other family to avoid anything like this happening again. We’d appreciate anything anyone can give. God bless.
