How Does Indiana Define Fraud?
Facing a fraud charge often comes with the obvious question of “What counts as fraud?” Indiana’s law specifically notes that fraud is a crime where a person uses deceptive tactics to gain access to property, information or benefits. There are multiple provisions in the law that cover tactics that people may use.
The law is written intentionally broad because fraud can cover so many types of activity. However, that broadness does mean that prosecutors can be “creative” in their pursuit of suspects. And when prosecutors get creative, that’s when a person’s rights are most in jeopardy.
Types Of Fraud
There are numerous crimes that fall under the umbrella of fraud and can include:
- Identity theft
- Medicare or Medicaid fraud
- Wire fraud
- Mail fraud
- Mortgage fraud
- Welfare fraud
