Sounds like fraud to me or at least breach of trust. The problem is proving it. Witnesses can testify, including you, any available documents might help, it will help to show that no money went to the other party, in other words it was not a sale, and that you had no intention of making a gift.
You need an attorney for this one, and will likely need to file suit. Also, more facts are needed to give a proper opinion.
best of luck,
