Have a family member harassing me by changing my address every few weeks, ordering massive magazines, etc. under my name and my spouses. Local police won’t do anything as crime was done cross country. Postal inspector doesn’t seem too up on arresting this person, although he assures me it’s a felony. My mail has been routed all over – and I keep hitting brick walls. Filed internet fraud complaint with fbi as well. Ideas on what to do? I’m fed up!

My fiance is being charged with felony unemployment insurance fraud. Does anybody know what he could face as a result of this? He just got the thing for the warrant in the mail yesterday and he’s going to go to court tomorrow but what is going to happen? Apparently he missed a court date for it that he didn’t know about.

What are the penalities for unemployment insurance fraud in nebraska? I’ve tried looking it up and I can’t find anything!
Is the jail gonig to be mandatory or is it something he might just get fined for? When he goes tomorrow to go talk to the judge and of course pleads not guilty will he get to go home until his next court date or will they keep him?

Obama lied about attending his Iraqi friend’s party.

"Obama’s name in Rezko trial
Levine says [Obama] attended bash for Iraqi crook "

http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/rezko/894559,CST-NWS-rezko15.article

"Stuart Levine testified under cross-examination that Obama and his wife, Michelle, attended the April 3, 2004, reception for Nadhmi Auchi." … "Auchi — who lives in London — had been convicted of fraud in France in 2003. After visiting Chicago and Detroit in 2004, he wasn’t allowed back into this country in 2005, according to a prosecution filing in the Rezko case"… "The April 3, 2004, gathering for Auchi took place at Rezko’s mansion in Wilmette, with about 100 people attending, Levine testified."

Last week, a jury found Obama’s friend Rezko guilty of 16 counts in a corruption case.

Obama is no longer in the clear. A witness contradicted what Obama said to federal investigators.
Lying to federal investigators is a felony. Many crooks have gone to jail for lying.

All right my friend who had a horrible gambling problem. This is a sad story I guess but I am curious for him.

He was arrested last year for theft(check fraud) from his father. He has a degree in mechanical engineering and had a great job in the oil industry went to crap, he lost his fiance as well. He fell into gambling and became severely addicted. He actually made a ton of money and then went to Vegas and got poped for all of it. Then he panicked and took small amounts at first thinking he will repay the money after he won some back(typical gambling problem) Anyway after 100,000 in fraud his father had to turn him in which my friend wanted it that way so his dad could get the money back. He did 8 months in county day for day and plead out to felony 2. He is repaying the bank a decent amount each month and is working at a good job finally.

Now where this gets tricky is his X-fiance went to a different county(where they went to school) after she found out he was arrested and told the police that my friend took the student loans out in her name and she new nothing about them. The student loans add up to 80,000 and she did know about them. All the money went into her bank account, she spent a lot on school related stuff. The statements cant lie. This was in 2007 as well so clearly 3 yrs ago and then all of a sudden she does not know about it? Well the detectives came to see my friend from the county she filed the report in and this was like back in Aug.09 and still nothing from that county. That would be a big fraud case and you would think they would act on it. The other part is that his dad is the co-signer on the loans so yet again it throws him in the middle of it and he does not know what to do? So if you can take all that in I would greatly like some legal advice.

Thank you very much!

good news also he is band from every casino in the country and goes to AA meetings and is trying to recover but I fear he is going get cought up in the courts again. Would they run it con-current with what he was just charged with or what do you think
?

She is saying she did not sign it and she knew nothing about it. This is 3 years ago and all the money went into her account and shows her spending it. So right there should say ok you cant file this( spending the money and going to her bank account, also 3 yrs ago)

He is paying his father back 700 a month right now. So he is getting on track. Also he can not go back to any casino so I hope he gets back to his old self. It seems easy to sink into that world but hard to get out. I feel so sorry for him because he was a great person and would help anyone he could. So only time will tell.

What boggles me is that the detective from the other county where she filed the police report at visited him custody when he was only 2 months into custody. So that would put the police report taken and served to the States Attorney almost a 9 months ago. I just dont understand it I suppose.

He is the head of court appointed lawyers, been one for 32 years.

This is only a part of the article, you can see the entire article by clicking on the link i have provided below. I found this on fox news and they are completely for republicans but even they could not hide this story. All of the investigations they have been doing on acorn and right under every ones nose this man and probably many others have been doing this. It appears that they were using acorn for a distraction so that they can get away with their acts in the dark while acorn has been taking all of the heat.

Article clip:

The head of a voter registration group hired by the California Republican Party was arrested over the weekend for allegedly lying about his address in the state in order to vote illegally, the office of California’s secretary of state announced Sunday.

Mark Anthony Jacoby, the owner of a signature-gathering firm called Young Political Majors, was taken into custody by Ontario police just after midnight Saturday and booked with a felony punishable by up to three years in prison.

Jacoby allegedly registered himself at his childhood home in Los Angeles, even though he no longer lives there. It is voter fraud to register if ineligible and perjury to provide false information on a voter registration card. Jacoby was charged with two counts of each relating to his 2006 and 2007 registration.

"Voter registration fraud is a serious issue, which is why I vigorously investigate all allegations of elections fraud," said Bowen, California’s chief elections officer. "Where there’s a case to be made, I will forward it to law enforcement for criminal prosecution."

I have a friend whose money was stolen by a business person who claimed to be a Certified Financial Planner, and a Licensed Investment Broker, among many other things. The business person was in school getting their MBA in Financial Planning at the time, and has now graduated. My friend wants to know if the school will potentially revoke his MBA degree based on the fact that he falsified his information with the school, and will be convicted of a felony soon. Please only respond if you understand the question fully and have informed knowledge on the subject.
Thank you all for your answers.

The business person was nominated for "Student of the Month" where he was given a chance on their newsletter to promote his business. It was on the school’s newsletter that he falsified that he had investment licenses (but my friend found out he has none), and several other things regarding his financial planning experience.

My friend and I are thinking that he most likely falsified his application to the school. She’s been informed by law enforcement that he committed several felonies, including infinity, affinity fraud and a ponzi scheme, and will most likely be convicted of a few felonies. Based on this information, would the school honor his MBA, if he misrepresented himself to the school as well?

1.I am being charged for Automobile insurance fraud. DA’s conclusion states accident never happened in 2003. And that 1 guy and i planned and got recruits from two cars.

2. Total of eight people totaling in the two vehicles. Which this concludes that its organized crime, when more than 3 are trying to
commit a crime so everyone benefits.

3. The 1 guy, admitted to 6 accidents that he planned, and one of those so called " Staged accidents is where my name is"

4. To make long story short, two people from the car that i was in are stating that it never happened and that i and my friend planned it. One of those is my x-gf, it was her car. THey all got imunity

5. Reconstruction accident experte, concluded that the two cars colided and one had others paint on it. And the car was drivable.

I am stressed, im in superior court and my lawyer is telling me to plea guilty , and get probation and a FELONY. I am a college student senior in engineering and i want to take it to court, because its a fifty fifty chance.. but the outcome if i loose is jail..

Ther is so many inconsistancies is everyone’s story, but my lawyer tells me that even if there is , dosent mean that they are lying…

Any advice for me??

My step daughter has gone insane after her mothers death. The both of us were named as executors of the will. She STOLE my copy of the most recent will,and I filed a report with the sheriff. The sheriff told me that "if" a copy of the other will could be produced,then charges could be laid, otherwise,at this time it’s just a civil case. My step daughter entered my house under false pretenses, when I wasn’t home, and stole my copy of the will,and then went and filed an earlier ‘version’ with the court. She also sued me to have me removed as executor because her layers did a background check on me. I have a felony from over 25 years ago. State law says I can be removed because of my record. The lawyer that did the wills for my wife refuses to help me. He said I must get a statement to release my late wife’s records, from my stepdaughter, because SHE is now the executor. If I go to the length to drag that creepy lawyer into court, I would then really want the step daughter charged with FRAUD and BURGLARY , and HARASSMENT. I’ve already been ‘banned’ from ever seeing the step-grand kids. They all call me "Gran-pa up-up". Not only did they lose their beloved grandma, now they are denied gram-pa up up as well. I have the FULL support of the other step children. (all of them are over 21)
How can I get the copies of the will, without having to charge my stepdaughter and her redneck husband with criminal ,charges?
I just want to have that will in my hands to SHUT HER THE FK UP!
I have some assets for a lawyer, but if I have to go there, she and her husband have to go to jail. Is that the only way?
I have several signed and notarized statements from witnesses as to the existence of the second will, and it’s provisions. That includes my wife’s sisters, my mother, and the minister that performed our marriage. Now she is refusing to provide the paperwork I need to complete the ‘SIMPLE ASSUMPTION’ so I can get the house transferred into my name. She says her lawyers say she can sell it. The mortgage is UNDERWATER ! She doesn’t care, she’s NUTS ! What can I do?
the house does belong to me, but in the ‘earlier’ version of the will, there is a clause that since we weren’t married, the house should be sold asap, and if it didn’t sell after 6 mos. , then I would have top battle it out with the Bank of America home loan dept. But after we were married, the UPDATED,STOLEN will gave me the house, and ALL the incoming insurance money from AFLAC. I really think handcuffs are gonna look good on her !
After the sale,any equity, if any, would be split fairly and legally. 50% for me, the other 50% split between the three adult kids.

1. there are recordings, that the DA has that i told my gf to get a lawyer before going to the police station to give a report.
2. She also recorded me as i said, " ur gona let cops scare you, u are a strong woman" .
3. WEll i have witneses against me that are lying, and they blame me for a Automobile insurance fraud they participated and stated i coached them on what to say. " they saved their ass, and lied, and u can tell by recordings of their stupidity.
4. One guy admited to one fraud, and got confused of another fraud he did . Well this guy is doing anything to get out of his Troubles and points the finger at me
5. Now their is a guy who pled to 38 charges of automobile insurance fraud, did 6 months in jail for it, and also stated i was his associate and that one of thoese accidents he plead guilty was " the paper accident he staged that i was in" only in paper.

A. In conclusion, out of the so called paper accident. of the total of the two cars supposidly crashed, there are 5 people stating that the accident was only done in paper.
B. 3 people in my gf car are stating it did happen, this hapened in 2002 and the case was oppened in 2008.. MY lawyer tells me to plea guilty because no jurror is going to belive that
(C)
All these people are lying because they wanted to plea a deal and they knew cops wanted me.. Im stuck and i have no idea what to do ,

3-yeras probation
0 fines
300 hours community service
-and a felony..

NOTE: Sucks, im trying to tell my lawyer im still in school and i graduate as a EE major next year.. I want to plea to a lesser charge, and have the felonies dropped.
If i plea not guilty, just to have more room time and breathing time. As someone stated in this answer, " i dont think i’ll have the choice to , take the deal offered in the beginning" ??
– He gave me a due date, and i changed that due date and he was ok with it.. BUT he goes on vacation the next week, so i think im being rushed.. ( its been 2 years now going to superior court)
– If i change my lawyer at this time, and get a private i dont think thats gona change anyhting. Cuz all the facts are there. but id like to plea to lesser charges, and drop the felonies!!!!!

found out there is a warrant out for felony misuse of credit card for me in ohio, however, i have never lived there, been there, nor do i know anyone that lives there. i definitely didnt do the crime!!!! called and was confirmed that a warrant is in my name, however i talked to someone about how it is ID theft, and how i have proof of living in a totally different state, in another part of the country. some secretary told me that i need to come there and turn myself in, but when i talked to someone else they told me to just talk to someone in fraud/theft and they will try to straighten it out so i wouldnt have to (live in louisiana). i am also pregnant, so i don’t want to go there and have to go to jail since i am almost 7 months along!! scared out of my mind!! should i just go to a lawyer and see what (s)he can do??? not sure where to go. filed a report with ftc.gov and fraud alerts. should i have to turn myself in when i didnt do it??
i did place fraud alerts on my credit report (got one after i found out about the warrant). and found 2 address in ohio, i’ve never lived there nor know anyone who has. and am working on getting that straight too…. worried because i dont want to go to jail when i didn’t do anything wrong, esp that!!!! not because i did it!

I have a question. How much time can one do or what is the maximum sentence for a Fraud Conviction.?
Here is more info……..

A friend was picked up by the FBI last year in October for Theft by Government contract.(Medicaid Fraud). On a 20,000 bond. We paid 2,000 and got him out. so now he has an arraignment in Oct. and A trial by jury in Nov.
His story……Got in business with someone who is the owner of the said company that the fraudulent billing took place. He is not the owner yet the department of Attorney General decided to include him as a part owner because he was the one who managed the billing and the patient information which as stated by the Medicaid Investigators, were all stolen and used without the patients knowledge. Making matters worse, Doctors signatures were also fraudulent, meaning someone must have forged those too. The total amount received fraudulently, over 200,000.00. Which i think is a class 2 Felony.

So what are the chances that he will get less time by using the landownership defense as a strategy and get off on maybe probation and some fines? His lawyer keeps telling him that all he will get is a couple of months probation but i disagree.

NOTE:Most of the billing paperwork has his name on it. so he can not say he didn’t know what was happening.
So all you lawyers out there help me let him understand that he is in for a long hard ride in jail. what do you all think?
@Honey, Thank you for the information. His name appears on most documents because he basically ran the company as instructed by The Owner. Yet the owner, in his own defense claims on not knowing of the fraudulent activities. The owner also claims that he only paid him to market and get in contact with doctors. So basically He has excluded himself from the said activities.
additionally, he sighed off on all documents. (Allegedly Fraudulent )
This happened in Texas

My sons marriage is on the Rocks. They separated after filing a joint Federal return. He told her when the refund check arrived to call him and he’d endorse it and split the money with her, which seemed fair since it was all based on his income because she hadn’t worked. She had a better idea, forge his name and keep all the money.
In SC forgery is a felony, not to mention it was a Federal check. Now he’s just trying to get a copy of the check back from the IRS to see how and where she cashed it. Are spouses immune to committing fraud on a partner? If he’d signed someone elses name on a check, he’d be in jail already. The local cops have told him the best he might get is his day in family court, for a Federal Check? Awe come on now!
Is this for real? It doesn’t sound right.

marriage is likely, but as i’ve been suckered into watching Sandra Bullock’s recent film "the Proposal" i’m scared of the consequences. Something about Marriage fraud immigration being a felony and the up to ,000 fine + jail time…..kinda scares me… let me know if you folks know of anything, and more importantly can link me to a credible online resource for further research (as i’ve been looking but keep finding lawyer websites)

Someone is calling friends any family.Saying I have 24 hrs or these supposed charges of fraud and felony.Think its just a scare tactic to find me.Vehicle is parked in plain view every day.Just don’t know my address.

Who decides between felony and misdemeanor?

Why don’t I have a say in it? I was the victim.

16yrs ago I unknowingly deposited a stolen check in to my account, and was convicted of felony fraud. I am seeking a carrer in Law Enforcement and every option says i will be dined because of my felony what do I do. I made a mistake I except that. Now as a 37yr old married father of three I am looking for security for my children. Any suggetions would be good.

I want to know who really suffers when we block people from working if they have been convicted of a felony.

My personal view for what it’s worth is that everyone should have a chance to work and earn a DECENT WAGE but many of our laws and rules in the work place bar people with records from working.
For instance if you’re a convicted felon in some states you can’t get a license to be a BARBER or a REALTOR. Why? I understand not letting a convicted felon working in a situation that got them into trouble in the first place. I wouldn’t necessarily let a convicted bank fraud felon work in a bank. But if we continue to block people from so many jobs we reduce their alternatives. I would rather have an ex-felon or ex-con working hard everyday for a living than waiting for me to come home from a hard day at work and knocking me in the head for money to eat and survive.

Let people WORK!

Workers at Oregon’s Driver and Motor Vehicle Services have turned in nearly 200 people to police for suspicious documentation, an effort that overwhelmingly singled out Latinos.

This summer, the DMV changed a long-standing policy: Rather than simply refuse service to customers suspected of presenting phony or altered documents to obtain licenses or identification, employees began to alert police.

From June through August, 140 people were turned in to police — roughly 94 percent of them with Latino names, according to DMV records obtained by The Oregonian. Oregon State Police and police agencies in Portland, Beaverton and Albany recieved the most referrals. Of those 61 cases, 13 people have been convicted of crimes, and a dozen others are pending prosecution, according to police agencies surveyed by the newspaper. Three others were cited but not charged with a crime.

For the remaining 33 cases, some were arrested but no charges were filed or their charges were later dismissed; some were never arrested or charged; or authorities could not find a case file for the person.

In one case, an Oregon City woman was arrested and charged with a felony only to find later that her identification was legitimate.

State officials say the new approach is a work in progress.

"We, too, are in the process of analyzing this to see what have been the results," said Lorna Youngs, administrator of Oregon Driver and Motor Vehicle Services.

She said the agency will evaluate the new procedure after it has been in effect for at least six months. The review will include how DMV employees followed protocol and what police agencies did with referrals. If Latinos make up the bulk of suspects, state officials will investigate further, Youngs said.

"We want to know, is this ultimately going to be a deterrent of fraud?"

So God has no problems with illegals who use document fraud to obtain a better life ? Can Americans have laws that offer the same special treatment. Do Churches condone document fraud knowing illegal aliens use fake documents to have this better life. What is the Churches stand on illegals they know who lie,cheat use fruad to have a better life? Are the illegals serving God or the Devil ?

I purchased a car nearly 7 weeks ago for 00.00. I paid by check and the seller cashed my check. I have a copy of it with his signature from the bank. I have been in contact with the seller and he kept telling me the title was going to be FedEx to me. First the seller had to wait 10 days for the check to clear he said before sending the title then he said he sent it but it was a weekend… then he said the car had to go through an inspection to be shipped to me… I am in Michigan and he is in Maryland. Next he said he hadn’t shipped the title so I could get insurance on it…. he basically gave me the run around for 30 days and after 30 days you are NO LONGER eligible for the Ebay Motor Sales Insurance. This I found out afterwards. NOTE: He has my money and my car… I have contacted Ebay. I have filed formal complaints with the Ebay People and they say all they can do is suspend him?????? This is crap in my eyes. It has now been 7 weeks plus. I have contacted ..
I have contacted local athorities here and have the police working on it but they say their hands are tied too. No jurisdiction since the crime took place in Maryland and not here. Maryland police tell me the crime took place here. How can that be???? I just want my car or my money. Isn’t this a FELONY on the sellers part???? And ebay doesnt care???? I thought ebay protected people. It would be different if they said they couldnt help me if I had received my car but I did NOT receive the car and the seller has my 00.00 – HELP ME! Who can I call next??????
"Uncle Jed Knows" – so are you telling me that there are millions of buyers daily on ebay that are STUPID? Transactions take place every second on ebay and millions of auctions end daily. They sell cars every single day. It was NOT underpriced the car I bought and I was not the only bidder. Maybe I was stupid to buy from a person with numerous sells and 100% feedback but paying first is the ebay rules. I wish there was another way around it too, but that is how they set up the auction. I still have a hard time believing that there is nothing ebay can do for me or others that find themselves in this situation. I will continue to search to find answers and I will take suggestions people give me here also. I am sick over my loss of money and it’s not a drop in the bucket to me. I work hard and I am a believer that I have ‘Rights’ in this world.

I am Required to do a background check. Felony is unrelated to children. It is a Felony for Conspiracy to Medical Fraud. It haunts me everyday of my life. I just want to be there for my children and be able to volunteer in their classrooms. I just am not sure if they are only looking for child related charges or things that harm or have to do with children.

I pulled my credit report through a company called Identity Guard and in it it contains background information and according to that I was arrested and charged for drug posession a felony in the state of Arkansas I have never even been to Arkansas and that definately was not me I live in Ohio. I dont know what to do to find out if this is a mistake on the part of Identity Guard or if someone has stolen my Identity. I called Identity Guard but am just getting the run around from them and my local police department will not help me until I can prove this is really listed under my social. I am going for a great job interview on Saturday and am afraid I wont even be called back If this does show up on my background check. Arkansas is not a public information state and they want you to pay for everything. I dont know where to begin Please Help!!!

Is identity theft a misdemeanor or a felony?

there are seven counts of felony, one count of grand larceny and one count for identity theft. I’ve been told that the accused has been involved in this type of activity before but has never served any time and I’m not even sure if there is a record.
