Changwon Attorney Office Assistance | Changwon Attorney, Acquittal for a Client Charged with Fraud

The client, having been charged with fraud, urgently consulted the Changwon attorney office to defend against the charge.

1. The Client Who Consulted the Changwon Attorney Office

The client, who consulted the Changwon attorney office, requested assistance from the Changwon attorney while facing punishment on a charge of deceiving the complainant and defrauding him of money.

How the Client Came to Consult the Changwon Attorney Office

According to the complainant's account, the client introduced the complainant to a cryptocurrency investment.

The complainant stated that the client then said there would be absolutely no loss of principal and that, by sending money, the complainant could earn large returns.

Accordingly, the complainant sent a large sum of money to the client on five occasions.

However, the complainant filed a complaint against the client on a charge of fraud, claiming that the client had used the money received for personal purposes.

The client, on the other hand, asserted that all of the allegations were untrue and that the situation was quite unfair, and requested assistance from the Changwon attorney office.

The Changwon attorney examined the background of the case in detail and developed a strategy to prove the client's innocence.

The Applicable Law Explained by the Changwon Attorney Office

The crime of fraud refers to an offense of deceiving another person to receive property or obtain a pecuniary advantage.

In the case of fraud, the offense is committed only when there is an act of deception, so proof of the act of deception is important.

Criminal Act Article 347 (Fraud)

A person who deceives another to receive property or obtain a pecuniary advantage may be punished by imprisonment for not more than ten years or a fine not exceeding twenty million won.

What legal liability can arise if a person is punished for fraud?

If fraud is found, a person may be punished by imprisonment for up to ten years or a fine not exceeding twenty million won, and the person also bears liability to compensate for the loss caused to the victim.

In addition, the victim may also claim consolation money for the victim's mental suffering, so it is important to obtain a legal expert's consultation at the early stage of a case and prepare a legal response.

2. The Assistance Provided by the Changwon Attorney Office

At the Changwon attorney office, after closely examining the specific facts through a consultation with the client, the attorney argued as follows.

The Changwon Attorney Office's Argument 1 | No Act of Deception

According to the victim's statement, the client told the victim that, if the victim raised money and sent it, the client would arrange for the victim to earn large returns by investing it in cryptocurrency.

The Changwon attorney submitted a recording of a phone call between the client and the victim as evidence and emphasized that the client had never made such a statement.

The Changwon Attorney Office's Argument 2 | Lack of Credibility

The attorney emphasized that the victim's account wavered from the very point of when the victim claimed to have heard the lie described in the charged facts, and that the victim had failed to submit any objective evidence to support that claim.

3. The Result of the Changwon Attorney Office's Assistance, "Acquittal"

Accepting the Changwon attorney office's arguments, the court returned a verdict of acquittal.

Satisfied with the result, the client expressed thanks to the Changwon attorney on several occasions.
