Most white-collar crimes fall into the category of "evasion." Evasion refers to the deliberate attempt to avoid paying taxes, fees, or other financial obligations. This can include crimes such as tax evasion, embezzlement, money laundering, and securities fraud, which are typically committed by individuals in positions of power or trust, such as executives, accountants, or financial advisors.
White-collar crimes are typically non-violent crimes committed for financial gain, and are often carried out by individuals in positions of authority or trust. While some white-collar crimes may involve theft or fraud, they are generally not classified as larceny or robbery, which typically involve the use or threat of force. Similarly, white-collar crimes are generally not classified as misdemeanors, as they often involve significant financial loss or harm to individuals or organizations.
