Identity Theft and Computer Crimes
Criminal charges that involve interstate commerce, such as the use of the phone or Internet to defraud, are typically prosecuted as federal crimes. Identity theft often occurs online in the form of phishing, fraudulent e-mails, fraudulent websites and other Internet scams. Hacking into a database or personal computer is another common way to commit identity theft.
Federal offenses generally impose severe penalties. If convicted, you could face time in a federal prison and be burdened with a criminal record for the rest of your life. As your attorneys, we will work hard to protect your rights and mitigate penalties.
We know that police or federal agents can make errors and misinterpret facts and circumstances. They may charge everyone who is associated with the real subjects of their investigation. Charges of identity theft may be mistakenly brought against individuals who did not knowingly or intentionally commit fraud.
