Got Scammed By my friend

So in short what happened is, she told me some accident happened and it's urgent so I gave her money. (This was 20 November) it's almost been 1 month now (16 dec). I texted her 2-3 times and she said aaj ho jayega kal ho jayega samjho thoda ghar me death Hui hai, meanwhile she was uploading stories on Instagram of her birthday parties in 2-3 different places... Now she does not even see my messages.

I know her family she lives nearby my father also knows her parents and all family, I just don't want to take this her parents cause obviously she did something with it so I was just being kind and giving her time but now I'm also out of patience it was money I had collected over time to gift something to my mom

Can anyone please tell me what should I do in this situation. I don't want to take this to her family but I don't think I can keep my patience for much longer. Please help me.
