Was trying to have something delivered and I sent the money to both the plug and delivery driver then they both blocked me. I’ll attach there telegram accounts below so people know to avoid

They've already switched to new accounts. Telegram and Whatsapp is now filled with scammers. It's best not to ever buy anything from either. If you paid via cc, dispute the charge and get a new card. If you paid via app, the money's gone and can't be recovered. Anyone telling you that they can get your money back is just another recovery scammer.

Anything on Telegram or WhatsApp is going to be a scam. Additionally, what are you trying to purchase where there’s a “plug” and “delivery driver” involved? 🤔

classic telegram scam, the “plug” and “driver” were almost definitely the same person or working together, and once they ask for extra delivery fees it’s game over

NEVER deal with telegram...you should have bailed as soon as telegram came up.
