My 'mentor' from a professional network scammed me with a fake crypto platform, now what?

Hey everyone, I'm absolutely devastated. I met someone on a dating app, we connected really well, and it felt so genuine. After a few weeks, he started talking about crypto investments, specifically urging me to try this platform he called 'ProfitStream Pro'. He seemed so knowledgeable, showed me screenshots of his own 'gains', and convinced me it was a secure way to build wealth. I transferred a significant portion of my savings – about $15,000 USD – into what I thought was bitcoin, following his instructions to deposit into this platform. Everything looked great on the platform's interface. I saw my balance growing, and he even helped me make a small 'withdrawal' of $100 to my bank account, which actually went through, making me trust it more. But when I tried to withdraw a larger amount last week, it suddenly said my account was frozen due to 'tax obligations' – needing another 20% deposit! When I refused, he ghosted me, and now the website is gone. I feel so stupid and violated. Is there any way to report this from Sharjah? I've heard about the FBI but I'm not in the US. What can I do?
