“White Collar Crimes” can refer to any number of potential criminal offenses. Generally, though, it refers to workplace offenses that often involve a breach of fiduciary trust. This can be something as simple as an accusation that an employee has comitted a theft of his or her employer’s merchandise, inventory, or property. Or, the accusation can be far more complex, involving allegations ranging from simple mail fraud to large scale ponzi schemes.
