I was searching for a loan, the person was a loan officer. we emailed and talked on the phone many times.

He said the loan would cost 385usd, so i agreed. After i payed that fee he called me and said the tax man had to have a payment of 1,000usd to release the fund. That seemed normal to me so i payed that fee.

On 10/09/09 he emailed me and said the funds had been released and was at my bank. So i checked my account to see nothing had been sent to my bank.

He called me on the same morning, the money was in this country but i needed to pay the bank fee of 400usd. I called my bank, they told me it would cost me 12.50 to get the fund. but it never made it to my account. so here i am out 1,385 dollars.

I have all the westernunion papers and the phone numbers he called me form.

"I was searching for a loan, the person was a loan officer. we emailed and talked on the phone many times."

 Really? Why would a loan officer from a legitimate company be using a throwaway gmail address?

 "After i payed that fee he called me and said the tax man had to have a payment of 1,000usd to release the fund. That seemed normal to me so i payed that fee."

 This should not seem "normal". Advance fee loans are not legal in this country.

 "I have all the westernunion papers and the phone numbers he called me form."

These won't do you any good. You've been scammed by someone pretending to be a loan company. By sending money via Western Union, the scammer left no paper trail. You didn't mention it, but did you send your money to another country? Canada, perhaps? The phone numbers are throwaway cell phones and will quit working within the next week or so. It is unfortunate, but you have sent $1385 to some anonymous person from the Internet. It's unlikely that you'll see that money again. This is one of the more popular scams on the Internet these days. For more info, check out the FTC's "Advance Fee Loan Scam" page :
