If you are in the states; and, if the money was transferred via ACH (not wire) the funds can be recovered under Regulation E. Make sure you check with your Bank to dispute the transactions and try to get the money back.

Good luck OP.

Edit: you state you are in Austrailia. Bummer. Ignore what I said.

Luckily the bank I'm with does have insurance to cover unfortunate situations with people who have accounts with them. I previously had my account hacked and had all the money in my statement account taken out (I don't remember the amount but it wasn't as much as 1k), and they were able to give money back to the amount that was taken, but couldn't cover the online taxes, which I was completely fine with
