Business fraud requires that a theft is committed by an employee against their employer, and that the employee attempted to conceal the theft and used the assets for personal gain.

Criminal sanctions for business fraud and theft are found in 18 U.S.C. §§ 641-649. Common business fraud cases involve cutting costs, spending corporate and shareholder money on personal expenses, and manipulating financial records for personal needs.

Studies show that men commit four times as much fraud against their employers than women. Older employees also commit more fraud than young workers. Most fraud is committed by non-managerial employees and only 12 percent by owner executives.

Those convicted of business fraud have faced fines, imprisonment, or both. If you or someone you know is involved in a case of business fraud, contact an experienced criminal defense attorney at Joffe & Joffe.
