Gunsan Fraud Attorney Assistance | Gunsan Fraud Attorney, Non-Referral Defense on a Fraud Charge
The client, who had been accused of fraud through a criminal complaint despite there having been no deception whatsoever in the course of a land transaction, visited the Gunsan office's fraud attorney and requested a consultation.
1. The Client Who Sought Out the Gunsan Fraud Attorney

The client, who had become involved in a crime of fraud, requested assistance from the Gunsan office's fraud attorney, seeking to proceed with the case together with the attorney and clear himself of the charge.
The Background to Seeking Out the Gunsan Fraud Attorney
The account of the client, who urgently sought out the Gunsan fraud attorney and requested a consultation, is as follows.
The client had been accused of 🔗the crime of fraud through a criminal complaint even though he had not engaged in any deception in the course of a land transaction.
The claim was that the client had deceived the complainant and sold him the forest land in this case despite the land being undevelopable.
The client was placed in a bewildering situation, since at the time of the sale he had clearly stated in the contract that the object of the sale was located in a development-restricted zone.
The complainant claimed that the client had, in the manner described above, deceived him and obtained approximately seventy million won under the pretext of the purchase price.
The client, seeking to clear himself of the fraud charge by proceeding with the case together with the attorney, held a detailed consultation with the Gunsan fraud attorney.
2. The Crime of Fraud Statutes Explained by the Gunsan Fraud Attorney
Criminal Act Article 347 provides that the crime of fraud is committed when a person deceives another and obtains money or goods or acquires pecuniary advantage.
A person who falls under this provision may be punished by imprisonment for not more than ten years or by a fine not exceeding twenty million won.
(1) A person who obtains property or acquires pecuniary advantage by deceiving another shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than ten years or by a fine not exceeding twenty million won.
For example, if a person sells land that he does not own, concludes a contract, and receives money, that person may be regarded as having committed the crime of fraud.
3. The Gunsan Fraud Attorney's Assistance
The Gunsan fraud attorney established the specific facts of the case through a detailed consultation with the client.
Accordingly, a task force of three to twenty criminal law professionals was formed, and a careful case strategy was established.
Gunsan Fraud Attorney's Argument I, the Absence of Deception
At the time of concluding the sale contract with the complainant, the client clearly disclosed that the object of the sale was in a development-restricted zone.
Through an on-site visit, the client even directly showed the complainant the geographical location, physical condition, and surrounding development status of the forest land.
In light of these facts, the attorney emphasized that there had been no deception of the complainant by the client at the time of the contract.
Gunsan Fraud Attorney's Argument II, the Grant of the Decision to Purchase
In the course of concluding the contract and the on-site visit with the complainant, the client granted the complainant the decision to purchase, telling him that the land was currently in a development-restricted zone and so its market price was low, but that he could realize capital gains through future development and should consider it carefully before deciding to buy.
The attorney emphasized that, since it was ultimately the complainant who decided to make the purchase, there had been no problem whatsoever in the course of concluding the contract.
Gunsan Fraud Attorney's Argument III, the Complainant's Misunderstanding
In the course of the sale contract in this case, everything the client disclosed or explained to the complainant was consistent with the truth.
The remainder of the complainant's claims arose from his misunderstanding or were distorted.
The attorney therefore emphasized that this case was a complaint about a transaction in which the ‘deception’ necessary for the crime of fraud to be established was not recognized.
4. The Police Decision on the Gunsan Fraud Attorney's Argument
The police accepted the Gunsan fraud attorney's argument and issued a ‘non-referral’ decision.
The client conveyed his deep gratitude to the Gunsan fraud attorney.
If You Need the Help of the Gunsan Fraud Attorney
The case above was an instance in which a client charged with the crime of fraud obtained a non-referral decision through the assistance of the Gunsan fraud attorney.
Because the crux of the crime of fraud lies in proving intent and improper purpose, it is advantageous to receive an attorney's assistance early in the case.
🔗A criminal attorney draws on extensive case-handling experience and know-how to form a task force of three to twenty members and establish a tailored strategy.
If you have become involved in a fraud case like the one above and are looking for a solution, it is recommended to visit the Gunsan fraud attorney for a consultation at any time.
