Wire fraud is a federal crime that occurs when communications are transmitted using a wire. This encompasses all forms of electronic media including cell phones, fax machines, radio transmission, email, social media, as well as SMA and text messaging. Federal Fraud is defined as the intentional misrepresentation or concealment of a material fact that results in financial or other damages to another party. The wire fraud statute is set forth in 18 USC § 1343 and provides:
Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, transmits or causes to be transmitted by means of wire, radio, or television communication in interstate or foreign commerce, any writings, signs, signals, pictures, or sounds for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.
We fight for your rights and protect your freedom when you are threatened or charged with a federal crime.
