I was tricked by someone to log out of my iCloud and log in to another iCloud and they reported my iPad as lost. Now they are asking me to pay to unlock it

Currently my iPad is reported lost. And when I contact them, they ask me to pay money to get it back, for me that amount of money is not small. I need a way to get out of this situation, can I unlock iCloud or something? I am very helpless.

iPad Pro (2nd generation)
