Tax Evasion - As the name implies, tax evasion occurs when you fail to pay the amount of taxes you owe, whether to the state or the federal government. This may look like moving money around, mischaracterizing your assets so as to avoid paying more than you want to, and many other creative maneuvers designed to help you get out of paying taxes.
Embezzlement - Embezzlement is typically when an employee, group of employees, or individual with intimate financial knowledge conspire to steal money from a business/organization.
Money Laundering - Money laundering involves funneling ill-gotten funds through several legitimate channels, such as banking institutions, in order to make it more challenging to trace the money’s illegal origins.
Securities Fraud - “Securities fraud” can refer to many different kinds of financial crimes one may commit while serving in an official capacity within a business. It almost always involves a misuse of confidential insider information or breach of a fiduciary duty. Another form of securities fraud involves deliberately misrepresenting crucial information about a company’s economic vitality in order to attract investors.
Other Financial Fraud - In addition to securities fraud, there are several other common types of financial fraud, some of which involve mortgage fraud, insurance fraud, healthcare fraud, corporate fraud, or pyramid schemes intended to defraud investors and/or consumers.
