I suggest make one complaint to the cyber cell (Information Technology department of police). They can trace out the person from his IP address. You also required and insist police officer to register FIR against that person. And make continuos follow up with police daprtment . They will trace out the accused.

Punishment for cheating by impersonating: There must be an essence of cheating alongwith personating. The cheating is essential ingredient for the offence. Where a person cheats another by deceiving himself to be someone else, he is guilty under section 416 IPC and punished under section 419 IPC. Punishment under this section is a jail term which may extend to three year jail term along with fine.
