There is any implementation of spf that checks the from of the data

Not that is actually useful.  There are valid reasons for Mail From
and From
to be different (look at the header of the e-mail for example).

How can i prevent forged froms on the data transaction ?

This is a difficult problem.  SPF is only a part of the solution to
a bigger
problem.

What MTA are you using?  We might be able to suggestion specifics.

Postfix.

With Postfix, in order to look at body data like From, you are either needing 
a content filter/smtp proxy solution or a milter.  You ought to talk to 
Stuart about his reputation work he mentioned.  It's done in a milter that 
with minimal modifications should work with Postfix 2.3 or higher.
