   The reason that your local police (or any law enforcement agency) would not be interested is that you freely sent cash through untraceable means (Western Union or Moneygram) to an unknown person in another country.  It's the same as if you'd handed the cash to a stranger on the street.   They have absolutely no evidence to follow up.    The company name was fake.  The names of the reps were fake.   Phones were throwaway cells that get disposed of every few weeks.  Internet contact is done through public wifi, so as not to leave an IP trail.

  Bottom line, it's illegal for a lender to require large upfront payments for "security" or "insurance".  Anyone who requires this is obviously not a legit lender, but a scammer.    Additionally, anyone that you don't know personally who asks you to transfer cash via W.U. or Moneygram is a scammer.   Legitimate businesses do not move money this way.  Both wire companies have warnings about sending money to people you don't know.

  Lastly, it appears that you were online applying for loans at seemingly random sites.   Has it occurred to you that you gave out enough info for someone to steal your identity, yet you had no idea who that info would be shared with (ultimately scammers).   You need to be much more careful about who gets your personal info online.

  BTW, the FTC maintains a web page about this scam.  You should look it over if you're planning to continue looking for loans online :
