Fraud and scam crimes are among the most common criminal cases in UAE courts, and handling them requires a high level of legal precision. Here at Samaha Law Firm for Legal Consultations, we provide a specialized fraud and scam lawyer with extensive experience in UAE criminal law, fully capable of representing you efficiently—whether you are the accused or the victim.
What are fraud and scam crimes ?
Scam (or swindling) refers to the act of unlawfully acquiring someone else’s money through illegal means, such as presenting false information or impersonation. Fraud, on the other hand, involves manipulating trust or using electronic methods to deceive victims. This category of crime includes:
- Bounced checks
- Forged signatures
- Embezzlement of partners’ funds
- Online fraud operations, and more.
Why do you need a fraud and scam lawyer ?
The UAE Penal Code takes fraud and scam cases seriously, with penalties ranging from fines to imprisonment. Therefore, being represented by a criminal defense lawyer who specializes in these types of crimes ensures the best possible defense and a precise legal understanding of the situation.
