Scammed and stole my money

On July 20th I bought an account off someone for 75 dollars. This was a first purchase on paypal and did not know that friends and family was different and the person made me pay him through friends and family. As soon as I paid him he gave me the email and password for the account but there was a two step verification code and when I asked him for it he would not respond. After messaging him many times he said I messed him up while playing a game and blocked me. During this my internet randomly went down and I am pretty sure he ddos'd me.    I filed a dispute under unauthorized transaction and immediately after he unblocks me and tries to have me unfile the dispute.
