Forgery: making a false document or other paper, including money.
Fraud: to TAKE something by defrauding or deceiving someone
Simple answer: no, they are not the same. Forgery refers to the act of faking a document to make it look genuine for financial gains. Fraud is tricking someone into giving you money. Forgery is one kind of fraud; there are many others. If you get money by forging someone's signature on a cheque, that is forgery and it is also fraud.

Incidentally, fraud and forgery are nouns describing the criminal acts. The verbs are to forge or to defraud.
