Scammed on Dragon Age 2?

I was going through the letters on my writing desk, and amongst them I found this one (see screenshot in the end)
 
Dear Sir or Madam,
 
I am Lord Achim Falk of Starkhaven. I have faith in the Maker and Andraste, his beloved prophet, that I must bring this matter of urgent business to you. Years ago, I served the office of the Seneschal to the royal family of starkhaven. Sadly, they have been deposed, ousted by a foul usurper. I represent His Royal Highness, Prince Corbinian Vael, the true heir to the throne, and with your help, Maker willing, we will see him wear the crown of Starkhaven once more.
 
His Highness had a fortune of eleven thousand sovereigns locked away in the vaults of the Royal Bank of Antiva. With access to this fortune, he can raise an army to retake the throne, but it is too dangerous for his Highness to simply withdraw the funds himself. This is where we require your assistance and discretion. 
 
Simply send me the details of an open bank account in Kirkwall, and I will arrange that the funds are transferred to you. My King will then contact you to retreive his fortune, leaving you with a hefty award. I must warn you, the Antivans will not consider the account viable if it contains less than 100 Sovereigns. Please observe the utmost confidentiality.
 
Yours,
Lord Achim Falk
 
Since equipment is very expensive and I could use the extra sovereigns, I deposited 100 sovereigns in my bank account and sent him the details. A few days passed, and the 100 sovereigns was gone from my account. I sent Lord Akim a letter asking whats going on, and he says he needed 100 more sovereigns to bribe bank officials so that they transfer the funds to me. I sent him the 100 sovereigns a few days ago, but haven't heard back from him.  Could the king be in trouble? or was I scammed? I tried to go to Antiva to help him but I don't see it on the map, is there a quest that unlocks it? I am now out of sovereigns and also out of equipment since I sold it all to raise more money for the king. HELP!

Yes, it's a game but it's designed to be as realistic as possible given the setting and events that occur. You can get scammed just like you could in real life. It's an added element we're not used to, but it's definitely a nice touch!
