It depends on the nature of the fraud. You should probably speak with a competent real estate attorney as soon as possible, as you may have remedies. Some frauds are reported to the DRE for licensing and discipline problems, others form the basis of civil suits that are subject to strict statutes of limitations.

Crimes are reported to police for prosecution by the DA office.

If you were 'damaged' financially by the forgery, then you may have a civil case. If so, feel free to contact me to discuss.
