Just based on the first line of your post alone, I am 100% convinced that you are being scammed - I will offer a full apology on here if that turns out to be untrue.

These types of scams are not limited to Nigeria alone and is worldwide.

Getting a tourist visa out of Nigeria is not an easy feat and requires months of dedicated work.

Consider your $1,500 as a life learning, not sending more money means that you have indeed learned from this lesson.

Good luck.

scam 100 pcent, your money is gone it is better you notify the police quickly

Notify which police. Nigeria or US? That's a fruitless effort either way IMHO .

What is the specific crime?

Mr Bert,
It is a scam. There no such hospital. The name is also fake.
Be careful next time. Don't send any more money.
Goodluck
