Yes, they are different. But you make it hard with abstract phrases like this>
1. I've been told. I was told.
I can't think of an example where you say "I got told".
2. I was robbed. I got robbed
"get" implies a physical action and a change of state. Here you change from not being robbed to being robbed. And the robbing is also a physical action.
"getting told" sounds strange, as there is really no effort involved in the telling of something.
3. get lost = start being lost
was lost = the whole time you were lost.
It's a little tricky here, but with practice you'll work it all out.
