Money owed by a colleague involving MLM Scam

Hi. A few months ago my colleagues contacted me saying they have joined a business venture which is related to e-commerce, buying and selling of products. They approached me by saying that a position is available at the company and they would want to freeze that position for me, I was neither informed about the company nor the job role,since I trusted them, I transferred 1,50,000 into my colleague's account. They revealed the name of the company later,along with what the job entitles, there were a lot of negatives with both the company as well as the job offered. Therefore I refused to sign any documents related to it. When I asked my money back on the same day the money was deposited, he mentioned that he had already paid the amount to the company. Is there a way to get back the money, what kind of lawyer am I supposed to approach? Any answer would be helpful. Thanks!
