1. If the Real Estate Division has reason to believe that fraud, deceit or false advertising is being, has been or is to be perpetrated in connection with the proposed or completed sale, purchase, rental, lease or exchange of any vacant or unimproved land or subdivision outside the corporate limits of any city, it may investigate the circumstances of such sale, purchase, rental, lease or exchange.
2. If such investigation reveals any evidence of fraud, deceit or false advertising which has influenced or induced or may influence or induce the sale, purchase, rental, lease or exchange, the Real Estate Division shall advise the Attorney General or the district attorney of the county in which the land or subdivision is located. The district attorney or, upon the request of the Administrator, the Attorney General shall cause appropriate legal action to be taken to enjoin any further sale, purchase, rental, lease or exchange until the fraud, deceit or false advertising is eliminated and restitution has been made for any loss.
3. Nothing in this section shall prevent prosecution of any person in a criminal action under the provisions of any other law.
