World Series tickets scam

My husband… he is someone who believes there is good in everyone. As soon as he told me he found tickets on Craigslist my stomach flipped. He spoils our children and myself any chance he can and never gets himself anything ever. So!!!! I kept my mouth shut. This guy is from out of state and my husband spent hours trying to Zelle and cash app him multiple times with different cards. He claimed nothing has gone through. He even had my husband send money through a money gram but it was canceled is what the guy said? I kept hearing the guy say “here I have another cash app try this one” “I have bitcoin, purchase bitcoins and send me that” ( something like that) I am seeing red flags all over and then when the money gram people called he had told my husband ahead of time to tell him they are just cousins and it’s a gift. It’s like midnight now and this guy went to a 24hr place for it but when he called back to say it was canceled on their end the way he said it the tone he gave off seemed so nefarious. My husband could sense me becoming more and more anxious so he left the room and came back like 2 hours later. I feel like in total he was in the phone with this guy for 5 hours! When he walked back Into the room his face was white and he didn’t say anything for a bit then said I might’ve been scammed.. he said he went to check on the guys event tab on Ticketmaster to double check the tickets and it’s all gone all this while he’s still on the phone with him and then the call ends and it just goes to voicemail when he calls back, When I check our bank account there $2000 pending. I’m a sahm we are barely scraping by so $2000 is going to hurt us tremendously. Please someone help! Where do I go from here?! I need so much advice!
