How to get a guy who scammed me out of $440’s IP address /any other info I can get for the police ?

I bought a watch this morning off of Reddit and sent the person Venmo. About an hour later I started to get an uneasy feeling from the way he was talking and asked to just cancel the transaction and refund my money.

The phone number he gave me is now no longer in service he has my money And won’t send it back or anything. All I have is the phone number he used, his Reddit username and his Venmo user name. Anything I can do with this info to find out who this person is to report him to the authorities?
