you need to provide much more information as to exactly what happened. It does not make any sense that someone would buy a house using your name as then you would be the owner and they would have to had used their own money for the down payment, etc.

Unfortunately, your message is not clear about what happened to you. If you were scammed, probably the best suggestion is to try to file criminal charges with the police and DA in your area. You can also contact the credit reporting agencies and start the process of correcting your credit. You can also file a lawsuit against the scammers to try to recover any damages you have suffered. There is no magic wand to wave and make this all go away. Your problem is likely to be difficult and expensive to solve. Contact attorneys in your area and try to find one experienced in these problems. You need the help.

Report it to the police. If things are as you say, at least one crime has been committed.
