Ideally you should recruit other victims who can each pressure their own MP. It will take work and organisation and there is no guarantee that anyone will get their money back, but from what can be seen at SW it's clear that this problem is a continuing risk with no visible action or even recognition by the authorities.
I didn't mean to encourage you in any other form of action and I have good experience of how resolutely organisations will ignore you. The job of politicians is to react to the concerns and problems of their constituents and I've found mine useful in swatting aside recalcitrant bureaucrats. I have no special influence or powers.
Undoubtedly the loss you suffered has hurt you badly, but the scale of similar fraud going on is astonishing and the potential for it being deployed in a much more sophisticated and costly manner is only dependent on the skills of those behind it, but actually they've done the difficult bit.
