Under A.R.S. §13-2310, a fraudulent scheme involves knowingly obtaining a benefit through false pretenses, representations, promises, or material omissions. This includes schemes designed to deprive someone of money, property, or the intangible right to honest services.
Fraudulent schemes are classified as a Class 2 felony. A first-time offender may face probation or 3 to 12.5 years in prison. With prior felony convictions, sentencing can range from 4.5 to 35 years. If the benefit exceeds $100,000, prison is mandatory and probation is not an option.
Common defenses include lack of intent to defraud, mistaken identity, insufficient evidence, or unknowing involvement. An experienced defense attorney can evaluate the facts and build a tailored strategy to challenge the prosecution’s case.
