I made an order with an amazon VA freelancer. We agreed on $5000 to pay for inventory for a supplier and also said that he could get the funds as soon as I hit completed order. Now I know that's not true and it takes weeks for freelancers to receive the funds. He comes back three days later saying he needs more money now and and the supplier wont be able to fulfill the order with the investment I sent. The new investment is $10,000. I tell him I don't have that and I only have what we agreed on. After some back and forth I realize this guy didn't know the suppliers MOQ and took my money without being sure so he is unable to fulfill what we had agreed on. That or he did know and is running some kind of scam. I ask for a refund he tells me no bluntly and starts to demand I give him the other $10,000 or i will lose my investment. I go to fiverr support and submit a ticket and after talking with them they said they'll forward it to the right team. That's been almost a week. Can someone tell me is this normal for response times to be this long? 

Getting scammed out of $5000. No response from Fiverr.
