The state of new york was defrauded

Has anyone quantified the amount of money that the state of New York lost in this fraud?

How was the state of New York defrauded? And if so and as this is normal business--buyer and seller each state their preceived values of property--does that make everyone a criminal if the state decides to look or doesn't like the deal or like them?

This is persecution, selective prosecution, excessive politically-inspired punishment. State seizure (nationalization) of private property.
