Types Of Credit Card Fraud

Perhaps the most basic type of credit card fraud involves stealing someone else’s card, or even just finding someone’s lost card and using it to make purchases in person or online.

Other types of credit card fraud involve stealing applications or illegally obtaining Social Security numbers and other information in order to obtain a new credit card in someone else’s name and either selling that credit card or using it to make purchases. Credit card fraud schemes can be extremely sophisticated, involving the purchase and sale of large volumes of credit card numbers via the internet. Credit card fraud charges may be accompanied by conspiracy fraud charges in these cases, making it all the more important to hire an experienced lawyer.
