If you are scammed you can't open a claim

in certain cases it can be OK to gift if the seller is super legit, but it doesnt serve a huge purpose besides making your payment slightly worth more to them.

Don't be too worried, hasn't been much scamming going around here lately from what I have seen. Most people on here are good for it, but in general don't gift payments.
