Did I get scammed?

Indeed.

I can see people tempted to drop a 324 movement from some Calatrava into a fake 5711 case to make a quick buck but this? Feels like some moron got their hands on a massively banged up 5146P (or parts of it) and tried to put back some life into it on the cheap.

Buying modern and neo-vintage watches exclusively with original papers should lower the risk of getting scammed.
