ofcourse yes, you have filed complaint against that person u/sec. 138 of Negotiable Instrument Act, 1881. It is a serious criminal offence.

You are advised to file a cheating complaint with the police. It is a serious offence. But that offence does not fall under Negotiable Instruments Act. It falls under Indian Penal Code Section 420.
