Employment scam and me being stupid.

Hello, I was caught in an employment scam, as a teachers assistant. It was my first virtual job and it was advertised through my school email so I thought it was trustworthy. They sent my checks to transfer money and after a day or two my bank balance became -$300. The checks were fraudulent. I filed a dispute on paypal however they just closed it. Is there any way to reopen one or to get my money back. I’ve learned my lesson.
