Encyclopedia > Fraudulent conveyance

The illegal transfer of property to another party in order to defer, hinder or defraud creditors.


In order to be found guilty of fraudulent conveyance, it must be proven that the accused's intention for transferring the property was to put it out of reach of a known creditor. There are many more types of fraudulent mail, but you can pick out fraudulent mail if you’re careful.


Fraudulent letters that you receive will probably have pitches like "congratulations, you've won","guaranteed prize" or "instant winner”.


Envelopes may also have statements like "urgent delivery" and "important documents enclosed” also
