Also known as Stock Fraud or Investment Fraud, these crimes are actively charged by federal prosecutors (especially post-Bernie Madoff). Usually, these charges involve the allegation that one has engaged in inducing investors based on false or misleading information to make financial decisions like buying or selling stock. According to the FBI, securities fraud includes false information on a company's financial statement and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings; lying to corporate auditors; insider trading; stock manipulation schemes, and embezzlement by stockbrokers. Like RICO and Racketeering matters, federal prosecutors will routinely attempt to freeze any assets you have if it is believed that those assets were gotten due to Securites Fraud.
