Credit Card Fraud

Counterfeiting credit cards, using lost or stolen cards, and fraudulently acquiring credit cards through the mail are all common types of credit card fraud. One form that is notably on the rise is “misappropriation,” the crime of using the credit card number by itself to make purchases. All such laws are investigated and prosecuted primarily under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Secret Service, though other state and federal law enforcement agencies can pursue a case.

Title 18, §1029 of the U.S. Code explains the violations and penalties associated with credit card fraud, which falls into the legal category of “fraud and related activities in connection with access devices.” Access devices are the things that allow access to account funds — anything from credit cards themselves to telecommunications equipment to PIN codes to counterfeit cards. More than half of the credit card fraud that goes on today takes place through a very familiar access device — the computer.

As with most white-collar crimes, credit card fraud is a complex legal issue. Experienced legal representation can benefit an accused person in many ways, especially if involved early on in the process. In addition to representing the accused in court, the right attorney may be able to negotiate lesser charges, or perhaps even prevent criminal charges from ever being filed. If you know or believe that you are being investigated for credit card fraud, protect your rights with skilled legal representation.
