Types of White Collar Crimes

There are many types of white collar crimes that are routinely investigated and prosecuted in Georgia. The most common white collar crimes involve illegal business practices by companies and their employees. Because the government has recently begun stepping up its efforts to stop white collar crime the number of investigations, false claims and trumped up charges against businesses and employees has also increased. If you or your business is facing any white collar crime charge in Georgia please contact our office for a free consultation.

Common white collar crimes in the business world include tax fraud or evasion, bankruptcy fraud, insider trading, bribery, computer and Internet fraud, email spam, healthcare fraud, investor fraud, investment schemes and more. The nature of these business related white collar crimes can be extremely complicated and some businesses may not even know they are committing crimes. The line between what is legal and what is illegal is often blurred in business law. That is why you should always have the most experienced and aggressive white collar crime attorneys you can find.

Other common white collar crimes include cell phone fraud, counterfeiting, currency schemes, extortion, forgery, “kick-backs,” theft, telemarketing fraud, welfare fraud and more. Other types of “schemes” that a company or individual sets up in order to deliberately defraud someone else of their money are also common white collar crimes. These include identity theft, Ponzi schemes, check fraud, retirement investments, real estate scams, coupon scams, Internet schemes, auto related contracts and more.
