[US] I got wire transfer scammed through my lawyer's assistant's email address and he's denying that they were hacked.

A 23-year-old individual was scammed out of $550 via a wire transfer after receiving a bank transfer request from what they believed to be their lawyer's assistant's email address. The lawyer denied the account was hacked, claiming it was 'encrypted,' and refused to refund the money, blaming the victim for the loss.
