Elements Of Credit Card Fraud Cases

Credit card fraud is a white collar crime that is a type of identity theft. It can occur in a number of ways, including:

  • Stealing the physical card
  • Stealing the card number and security code
  • Applying for a card under another person’s name
  • Selling stolen cards and numbers
  • Hacking into customer databases

These types of crimes can result in federal charges being filed. A few of the commonly related federal charges include mail and wire fraud, bank fraud, money laundering and conspiracy. If you are facing multiple federal and state charges, you need a strong defense team on your side. Our experience in handling these cases will help you evaluate your case and determine what defenses you might have.

As with all fraud charges, the prosecution must prove that there was fraudulent intent. We thoroughly investigate each case so we have the facts – not just the prosecution’s version of them. We will look for weaknesses in the case against you, including whether there was an intent to defraud.
