I filed bankruptcy chapter 13 back in 2007 or 2008 and I was wondering how long do I have to wait to try to file again?

If the previous 13 was dismissed before it was completed, and the dismissal was not for cause or "with prejudice" - meaning it cannot be refiled - then a new 13 bankruptcy can be filed any time. If the court thinks you are gaming the system, though, by refiling, you may have a problem. The automatic stay will only be valid for 30 days and the debtor has to file a motion to extend the automatic stay indefinitely. If the judge thinks you are not serious, s/he may deny the motion.

Automatic Stay is the thing that is automatically done when you file bankruptcy. It protects the assets of the bankruptcy estate. It prevents collection attempts. It stops foreclosure / evictions. A motion for relief from automatic stay is filed by a creditor when they want to foreclose, continue foreclosure, eviction, reposession, etc. Speak with an attorney about your specific situation. If you can not find an attorney, contact your local Bar association and they will refer you to one.

You should file a claim in his/her Chapter 13 case; you may or may not get your money back. If you don't file a claim, you're out of luck; he/she is protected by the automatic stay while in Chapter 13, and by the discharge afterwards. (If you think it's fraud, consult an attorney.)
