Maybe you can recover it. maybe. if the scammers are any good, your Apple ID is permanently gone, your passwords are all exposed, a\your payment cards are exposed, basically…. Bad.

You’ve seemingly lost control of your Apple ID and will want to address that with the previous links, and have seemingly also lost control of that iPhone: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen - Apple Support
