Pandemic Crimes: Investigating and Prosecuting Fraud and Scams During COVID

July 12, 2021

Webinar

CLE: 1.25 Credits

Every year, millions of dollars are stolen from victims of various schemes across the country. It is a tale as old as time – a crime occurs, gets investigated, and prosecuted. Since the Pandemic, many fraudsters have focused on the fears wrought by COVID on both everyday people and the government. From unemployment insurance fraud to PPP loan fraud to counterfeit PPE, this presentation will highlight some of the common frauds and scams that have been uncovered. Additionally, this presentation will discuss in depth how criminal investigations and prosecutions have had to adapt during the Pandemic.

Presented by:
Philip Apruzzese
Director – Combatting Upstate Financial Fraud Schemes (CUFFS) Initiative
Assistant Attorney General – Criminal Enforcement and Financial Crimes Bureau
NYS Office of the Attorney General
