Fraud

In Victoria, fraud is a broad term used to refer to offending which may involve deception or an attempt to deceive another person, often involving elements of sophistication and planning. The relevant case law frequently speaks of difficulties in detection.

Fraud may include theft or embezzlement. The particular charge will depend on the circumstances of the charge, and the amount which has been taken or lost. The laws are particularly complicated, and it is important to get specialist fraud lawyers melbourne involved.
