Low Cost Detectives - What are the types of Corporate & Employee theft?

Theft often overlaps with fraud, especially if the person accused of theft obtained the money or property by deception. Regardless of it coming under the Theft Act 1968 or the Fraud Act 2006, the person involved can face serious consequences.


Theft can also assume a number of forms, including but not limited to the following forms:


Embezzlement
A type of property theft, embezzlement usually involves an individual in a position of status or power to steal money or property for their own personal gain through manipulating the company’s accounts.


Signature forgery

Payroll Fraud
