I received an email from my boss with his with his e-signature (MD, Department head etc..). He said he is in meeting and needed me to get him $1700 worth of google gift cards and and send it to him urgently, which is what I did. Turned out to be a scammer.

I was an idiot, but it can happen to anyone.

I received an email from my boss with his with his e-signature (MD, Department head etc..). He said he is in meeting and needed me to get him $1700 worth of google gift cards and and send it to him urgently, which is what I did. Turned out to be a scammer.

I contacted CC company, and they said this is tough case since I made the transactions myself.
Should I file a police report? any hope reclaiming some of the looses?

No, but people usually give it away as gift cards.
Never thought it would happen to me

Screenshot the email and black out the sensitive details

Should be easy for you to prove that you’re not lying

First email:

Are you available?


Me:

Yes juts got home, Call?

Him:
I’m in a meeting right now off campus and I need you to help me out on something very important right now. Please, I need you to help me get google play gift card from any nearby store and get it sent to someone ASAP , I will reimburse you as soon as I return to the office. It's impossible for me to leave this meeting at this time. So, help me to get it from the store and get it sent as soon as possible.
