Fraud Cases
A wide variety of crimes are considered to be fraud cases. These include accounting fraud, bank fraud, false statements or fraudulent activities during a bankruptcy proceeding, bribery, fraudulent acts while using a computer, credit card fraud, forgery, defrauding a government agency, health care fraud, mail fraud, medicare fraud, mortgage fraud, public corruption, securities fraud, tax fraud, and wire fraud. The one thing in common among all these different type of fraud cases is that each involves an allegation that the defendant either made a knowing misrepresentation about the facts, or concealed some fact, and this was done in order to induce another person to give up some thing of value.
Another common aspect of fraud cases is that they are very complicated. Such cases are often investigated by police officers or federal agents who have specialized training or experience. These cases are complicated, and quite often involve thousands or even millions of documents or electronic records.
