Common types of business fraud include:
- Embezzlement: Also known as “larceny,” embezzlement is when someone within the company allocates some of the business’ earnings for their own personal use.
- Payoffs: Also known as a “kickback” or bribery, this form of fraud occurs when someone pays another company or entity money in order to secure a certain advantage or influence their decision-making.
- Skimming: Skimming occurs when employees or an employee inaccurately records the company’s revenue, and instead, takes some of the money for himself/herself.
- Internal Theft: Internal theft refers to an employee taking a company’s supplies or goods.

What Is a Fraudulent Transfer?
Fraudulent transfer refers to a business or individuals’ attempt to hide assets from a creditor so that they won’t be seized during bankruptcy. For example, someone might place funds in an account under a different name so that they won’t be found, or they might begin selling assets or otherwise hiding them.
If it is discovered that you are committing this type of fraud, it may seriously jeopardize your ability to discharge debts in bankruptcy. Additionally, if a business makes a sale that results in them becoming insolvent, and then subsequently pursues bankruptcy, that can be considered fraud.
Because it can sometimes be difficult to discern whether a sale or transfer of assets is considered “fraud,” it is imperative that you secure legal representation. The Mirkhan Law Firm can help you understand the laws associated with this type of fraud and help you avoid making a great error.
