According to Wikipedia: "In law, fraud is deliberate deception to secure unfair or unlawful gain" with both civil and criminal penalties.

Best practices dictate that you take your proof of fraud to a local, common interest community-savvy attorney, who can help you understand your options.

Depending on the evidence, the attorney may recommend that the county prosecutor become involved.
