Fraud sales on instagram

I was referred to a page called as @_shop_online_kyra_. The page had good offers going on so I took enough time to select items and before placing order I even went through various screenshots of the seller posting about customers. The seller didn’t offer COD so I decided on making the payment via Paytm. He referred himself as Kyra from Bangladesh, and said 15 items would take 7-24 days to deliver. I made a payment of 3499, and after that kept asking him about the status. He told me it is in transit & will receive it by 5th November. (Order places on 19 October 2017)
On 7th November I asked him & he didn’t reply for long hours. I checked that he had blocked me by then. I tried to call and it said unavailable & said in Gujarati so I assume the number is from Gujarat.
I messaged him from another account saying I would like to buy & to see what he replies, he said he was genuine & to trust and make payment . And so I disclosed who I was and he has scammed me so he even blocked me from that account. Please help me, i have four friends involved too who are scammed for a total of 6-8 thousand.
