Yes you could lodge complaint for registering FIR under the charges of cheating, cheating by impersonation , forgery etc to your nearest police station. In the complaint before the police you need to mention the sections. It is the duty of the police to apply the appropriate section if it register the FIR.Engage an advocate for better result.
