Obtaining Property by False Pretenses

The Fialko team defended a young man who was charged with felony obtaining property by false pretenses. The charges were issued after the client found a gig-work job for an online re-shipping electronics company.

We subpoenaed in-store video and online sales records that helped us show our client had no criminal intent. In addition, using computer forensics and a private investigator, we proved that our client had no knowledge that the items had been bought with stolen credit cards. The prosecutor agreed and dismissed the charges.
