It would be deductible as a casualty loss. However, you really need to qualify it as fraud...not just believe it is or it's obvious. For example, many people, both employees and investors in Enron stock, tried to take many different losses as a casualty loss (instead of a capital one), for the tax benefit. But that position was rejected each time by the IRS. And Enron to some is a fairly clear instance of fraud....but even with the proof of accounting deceptions, as the case was never proven or prosecuted legally as fraud....it wasn't allowed as that.
