Credit card fraud

Credit card fraud is a term used to refer to behaviour which falsely suggests an entitlement to the use of another person’s credit card, in using that credit card to commit other frauds. In Australia, this type of offending may charged and punished under either state or Commonwealth criminal law. The relevant case law frequently speaks of difficulties in detection and ease of commission.

Contact us now to discuss your charges and the circumstances which have led to these issues. We will review your case carefully, and it is important for us to be fully briefed on what has led to the police becoming involved in the first place, whether the investigative conduct is legal and appropriate, and other circumstances relevant to determining whether there are any defences to the charge, whether the matter needs to go to court, and what are the likely penalties.
