Low-Level White Collar Crimes

Not all white collar crimes are carried out by business executives or company owners. Many incidents of white collar crimes occur at a much less significant or dramatic level. The potential penalties upon conviction can be just as damaging, though.

More common types of white collar crimes include:

• Bribery: Attempting to gain a favor, advantage, service, or item by illegally offering finances or a favor in return is the white collar crime of bribery.
• Identity theft: Taking or assuming the identity of someone you are not is the crime of identity theft. It can branch off into a wide number of forms of identity theft, like credit card or mail fraud.
• Cybercrime: Any sort of illegal activity conducted over the internet is known as cybercrime. There are many forms of cybercrime, such as online identity theft and distributing computer viruses.
