Mail & Wire Fraud Defense in Pennsylvania

Facing mail or wire fraud charges in Pennsylvania can be overwhelming, as federal law strictly prohibits any schemes intended to deceive others for financial or personal gain through the use of U.S. postal services, telecommunication methods, or digital channels. At Tucker Arensberg, our skilled team of defense attorneys has extensive experience navigating federal fraud laws to protect our clients’ rights and reputations.

What Constitutes Mail and Wire Fraud?

Mail and wire fraud involve the use of postal or electronic communication to carry out fraudulent schemes, including misleading investment opportunities, telemarketing scams, phishing attempts, and online fraud. Examples of such schemes include:

• Mail Fraud: Sending fraudulent invoices, false charity solicitations, or other deceptive materials via the U.S. Postal Service.

• Wire Fraud: Engaging in scams through email, phone, or online methods, such as identity theft, phishing for financial information, or fraudulent business proposals.

Whether you’re accused of attempting fraud or conspiracy, each act can lead to separate charges, increasing potential penalties. Sentences can be severe, with the possibility of federal prison time, steep fines, restitution, and long-term probation. These charges are often coupled with other white-collar crimes, making skilled legal defense essential.
