Under 18 U.S. Code Section 1348, an individual may be charged with securities fraud for any deceptive practice involving the stock and commodities market, in which said individual attempts to convince other individuals to make purchases or sales based on false information. Also known as stock or investment fraud, securities fraud may include stock manipulation, making false financial reports, misleading corporate regulators, and embezzlement. One of the most well-known white-collar fraud crimes, securities fraud is a serious charge and may lead to time in prison.

Because securities fraud is a federal crime, it is important you hire a law firm with the skills to defend you against the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These government agencies will do everything in their power to pursue the harshest consequences possible for you and your business, meaning you will need tenacious litigators on your side to successfully beat the charges. Consider that a conviction for federal securities fraud can result in a prison sentence of up to 25 years, as well as steep fines.
Securities fraud is a sweeping charge, which may lead to other state or federal charges, too. Multiple parties or companies are often involved in a securities fraud case, which is why it is not uncommon for individuals facing securities fraud charges to face wire fraud, misappropriation of funds, or other conspiracy and fraud charges in conjunction with their larger case.
