I believe my account has been compromised. I sent money via Friends and Family. What do I do?

I saw on Twitter that there was a post of a dog getting hurt, so naturally I wanted to help. I reverse searched the image and everything seemed fine. A family member had recently lectured me on seeing the good in people, so I decided to send with the FnF category. I'm glad I didn't send more, but I would like help getting my money back as I am a college student who may be out of a job next summer. Thank you so much.

Sadly you have 0 buyer protection for funds sent using the friends/family option as you basically sent a 'gift' of money.
