The Consequences of White Collar Offenses
All levels of government in the United States take white collar crime very seriously. The FBI has a white collar crime program that partners with government agencies to investigate potential offenses. North Carolina also investigates and prosecutes white collar crimes, such as embezzlement, credit or debit card theft, extortion, forgery, and identity theft.
You could face significant financial penalties and imprisonment if convicted of a state or federal crime. Not only that, but a conviction can damage your reputation and cause you to lose professional licenses/associations. You may also have to navigate civil lawsuits and pay victim restitution in addition to fines.
