You can register an FIR in the nearest police station under section 420 of IPC. you can also file a complaint in the court of your Jurisdiction under Section 200 or CrPC. You can also write a complaint to the senior Superintendent of Police stating your concerns and the fraud which is done with you. Criminal Procedure Code has many provisions in the situation when police are not registering the FIR.
