Please elaborate.  Did you lose money as a result of fraud?  Have you notified the authorities?

Casualty losses and theft are not deductible on your Federal return under the tax laws that changed for 2018 to 2025.  Sorry.  (Only casualty losses in a federal declared disaster area are deductible.  Theft losses are not)

State may be different.

 

If you have insurance, look into that.
