You need to contact your bank/CC company & report this as soon as possible - they may be able to help you & they'll tell you if you should cancel your card.
Don't feel too bad, heaps of people get scammed every day. At least you've found out early.
The reason that your email address wasn't being recognised by the LW site was because you never paid for an official version of LW. Only people who buy from the official site have their email addys added to LW's database, so that they can download updates in future.
Scammers are pond scum.
The links below have a bit more info, but best bet is to get straight onto your bank/CC company
