What are the consequences of credit card fraud?
Josh H asked:
My teacher in my Economics class gave us a handout and we need to research on this. A man at his workplace took down credit card information, and used it to purchase an item online for 180.00. What we have to find out is if it is likely this case would be investigated, and what the consequences or punishments are for this action, as well as how likely he’d be caught. Does anyone know the details? Would an insurance agency typically not go full out on a transaction this low? In my opinion, i would think not because it wasn’t a HUGE amount of money but I may be wrong.
