Russman Law Has Experience in All Types of Fraud

Beyond identity theft, a number of other fraud offenses could lead to severe consequences. Among them are:

  • Credit card fraud – This type of fraud involves stealing or using a credit card and making unauthorized transactions against another party. Currently, they make up 17% of identity theft cases.
  • Bad check fraud – As the term sounds, this charge is given when an individual has been accused of writing “bad” checks (checks against accounts with a lack of sufficient funds). Also termed as NSF check fraud.
  • Forgery – Faked or forged signatures on a check, deed, mortgage, public record, and other legal and official documents are considered charges of forgery.
  • Racketeering – A charge that includes organized crime such as extortion, protection racketeering, or numbers racketeering. New Hampshire follows the federal RICO Act in persecuting individuals involved in organized crime.
  • Tax fraud – Also known as tax evasion, this charge is given by federal or state tax officials who find individuals who are avoiding tax payments.
  • Insurance fraud – Any act that has been committed against an insurance company to illegally gain money or assets against the terms outlined in an insurance policy. Insurance fraud can cover any type of policy and if convicted, can result in severe fines and a possible prison sentence.
