Miami Accounting Fraud Lawyer
What is Accounting Fraud?
Accounting fraud is a type of
theft crime that is committed when a person within a company, usually a small
company, illegally takes company funds. This crime is very similar to
the crime of
embezzlement. However, when a person commits accounting fraud, he/she may tamper with
the company’s financial records to conceal the theft of funds. When
a person commits accounting fraud, he/she may tamper with company receipts,
payroll, or deposits. When the theft is finally discovered, it is usually too late.
Fraud occurs when a person intentionally deceives a third party, which
results in injury or financial loss for the third party. When a person
commits fraud, his/her primary goal is to obtain money under false pretenses.
This dishonesty is usually not exposed until way after the person has
illegally obtained funds. Once a person has committed fraud, such as accounting
fraud, he/she will be subject to criminal prosecution by the Florida law
enforcement, district attorneys, and judges.
