Federal White Collar Crimes
Federal white collar crimes are a collection of criminal activities that draw federal interest due to their national or regional scope, as well as their potential to erode the public's confidence in certain privileged organizations. Health care fraud, including the filing of false Medicare or Medicaid claims, insurance fraud, and securities fraud are examples of the types of white collar crimes that can merit government interest.
The rise of the internet has added new types of white collar crime to the federal government's watch-list. Identity theft and computer-based fraud are being closely monitored by the government. In 2003, the federal government unveiled the Can-Act Spam Act which targets persons and groups operating spam networks.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation's strategic plan for 2004 through 2009 calls for increasingly aggressive seizure of assets in federal white collar crimes cases. The FBI suggests that stripping convicted white collar criminals of illegal gains will send a strong message that white collar crime will not be tolerated by the federal government.
Unfortunately, this zeal for justice can result in mistakes, including improper conduct during a New York white collar crime investigation.
