You just paid tuition to the School of Reality. You will never see that money again.

You can hire an investigator to locate him and sue him in small claims court. But even when you get a judgment, you may not be able to collect, unless the defendant is working and you can attach his wages or his bank accounts, but it is a lot of work to do all that.
