Many cases of credit card fraud and identity theft are often not investigated by the authorities. However, if the amount stolen exceeds $2,000, the police and the bank internal fraud unit are more likely to investigate the incident and the perpetrator is likely to be arrested.In some cases involving massive credit card fraud, the FBI and the Secret Service will become involved and the case may be prosecuted under one of many federal criminal statutes in federal courts.
If you are investigated for a credit card fraud crime in New York City, do not discuss anything with detectives. Even if you believe that you are innocent of the accusations or think that you can simply "explain what happened" so that the the problem is resolved, it is not wise to say anything to an investigator. Always insist on talking to an attorney first. Call our experienced New York City credit card theft lawyers for a consultation.
