Common Types of Fraud in Colorado
Fraud is a prevalent white-collar crime involving deceitful activities intended to gain an unfair advantage, often financially, at someone else's expense. In Colorado, the severity of fraud charges varies by case, ranging from petty offenses to felonies, as the state recognizes several types of deceptive behavior under its revised statutes in Title 18.
Some of the most common fraud cases we see at Block45 Legal include:
Insurance Fraud: When someone commits insurance fraud, it typically involves providing false statements or documentation to insurance companies, misappropriating insurance payments, or even staging car accidents for insurance claims. Penalties range from misdemeanors to felonies, depending on the severity.
Money Laundering: Though it's usually associated with organized crime, money laundering in Colorado includes financial transactions that conceal or promote illegal activities, often in connection with other crimes like drug sales or handling stolen goods.
Identity Theft: A significant issue in Colorado, identity theft involves using someone else's personal information for financial gain, such as applying for credit cards or loans using stolen data. This offense is a class 4 felony in Colorado, with penalties including prison time and substantial fines.
Forgery: More than just creating counterfeit currency, forgery includes falsifying documents like wills, tax returns, or unemployment applications. Colorado law also criminalizes the possession of tools for creating forgeries.
