Cardonio Crypto Credit Card:  What is an ICO Bounty Program and How to Incorporate it into an ICO Campaign?

# data[].attributes.body
The crypto-world is becoming bigger and interesting as we speak. The industry experts are ever restless, launching new alt-coins almost every day. But this is not the only thing that is being done in this industry. Once you start following the news, you will see a lot of new terms and activities, that quite frankly don’t make any sense to some people as well. One of these terms is ICO bounty program. You must be wondering, Wait, what is that?

If you had a chance to get familiar with some unorthodox marketing techniques in the past, then there is a good chance you can guess what ICO bounty is all about. And no, it doesn’t involve anyone becoming a pirate at any given point in time. Let’s see what ICO bounties are, and what role they play in an ICO campaign.

What is an ICO Bounty?
The Initial Coin Offering is an effort made by cryptocurrency startups to raise money for their project. Everything starts with the whitepaper, which translates into a business plan. The whitepaper usually contains:

A detailed explanation of what the project is about.

The reason why the project was started, and whether there’s a real need in the world for it.

A financial plan, where the key point is how much money the startup needs to get things going.

The precise number of newly created crypto tokens that the project creators will keep for themselves.

Information on whether the startup will accept only cryptocurrencies or regular cash as well.

The end date for the ICO campaign.

During the ICO campaign, a cryptocurrency startup’s main goal is to raise as much money as they can. On the other hand, investors are motivated to invest in it by the quality of the whitepaper, especially by the part where the real need for the cryptocurrency is explained, and the hope that the cryptocurrency’s price will spike after the plan launches.

The more people learn about the ICO, the better, simply because the number of potential investors rises. This is where the ICO bounty comes in. Some startups don’t have the money to hire PR and marketing firms to help them raise money. An ICO bounty is an efficient and cheap way to spread the word about the ICO by outsourcing marketing to regular people.
​
An ICO bounty can be something very simple, such as logo creation, a mention in the comments of a popular YouTube video, a full YouTube video, forum posts, content creation, and so on. Upon completing it, the startup rewards the bounty hunters with the brand new cryptocurrency.

What is an ICO Bounty Program?
The ICO bounty program is a specific marketing effort a startup decides to implement. The more detailed the ICO bounty program is, the greater the chances for the startup to reach success. ICO bounty programs help startups in two distinctive ways.

First, they help them spread the word of their ICO, and, secondly, bounty programs can help startups get the bugs out of their code by using high-end programmers which they cannot afford to have on their payroll.

An ICO bounty program may involve all sorts of activities ranging from signature and social media campaigns, to content creation and translation campaigns as well. Companies like ICO Bounty incorporates and offers multiple types of ICO bounty programs, both pre-ICO and post-ICO ones. All of this isn’t done in an erratic fashion. Over the years startups in the crypto world have learned a lot. Let’s see what types of ICO bounty programs there are.

The Framework and the Types
Before you decide which ICO bounty will work best for your startup, you have to get familiar with the ICO bounty framework as a whole.

The term pre-ICO bounty programs, as the name implies, refers to all the bounty efforts made before the ICO launch. Their primary purpose is to create the buzz and get your marketing ball rolling. The ultimate goal is to significantly increase awareness and get investors interested in your startup and upcoming ICO.

Pre-ICO bounty programs include the following activities:

Social media campaigns – these bounties are designed to use the followers of the participants’ social media accounts to raise awareness of the ICO. It is important to distribute rewards depending on the engagement levels generated by the “bounty hunters”. The most popular social media platforms used in this instance are Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube.

Content creation – many of the people interested in cryptocurrencies have blogs with large audiences. These bounties are designed to motivate them to write articles about your ICO on their popular blogs.

Signature bounties – these are the most popular ones, as they are open to all the people at the Bitcointalk forum. Startups usually restrict these bounties only for people who have a Jr. Member rank or above on this forum.

Post-ICO bounty programs are launched after the money for the ICO launch has been raised, to collect the feedback from the community so that improvements can be made. But, spreading the word to as many people as possible still remains the underlying goal of this effort. The most popular bounties for the post-ICO stage go as follows:

Translation – documents like the whitepaper, the official cryptocurrency website, and the Bitcointalk ANN thread are translated into several world languages.

Bug Hunting and Reporting – every cryptocurrency platform and software has bugs, especially when it is young. Bug reporting bounties are designed to motivate people to report the bugs as soon as they discover them.

Costs and Benefits
All the information so far clearly implies that the benefits of ICO bounty programs are huge. They offer unique opportunities for startups on a limited budget to spread the word about their ICO, get more people interested in investing in it, and make improvements to the platform after the ICO goes live.

When it comes to the costs, they are next to none. Some of the blockchain startups do hire bounty campaign managers, which significantly increases the costs of running a bounty campaign.

You can also consider getting listed on websites frequently visited by ICO bounty hunters to engage as many of them as possible. In any case, all the costs associated with these efforts are significantly lower than the costs of hiring a marketing or PR firm.

Famous ICO Bounty Programs
One of the most famous ICO bounty programs was launched by Rentberry. The idea was quite genius – they used Blockchain technologyand smart contracts to enable people to enjoy an easier rental process, and their ICO bounty program is what made it possible for the project to start.

Another one is VRT World, a startup devoted to developing a decentralized global platform for all VR enthusiasts in the world.

People can take part in all sorts of VR activities and get exclusive access to the cutting-edge VR technologies on this platform. Their bounty fund is around 2% of all sold VR tokens. The majority of the bounty fund (30%) is reserved for the signature and avatar campaign bounty.

BitNautic also leveraged ICO bounty programs to incentivize the people to invest in their decentralized shipping and cargo platform. Around 5% of their total coin supply is reserved for bounty campaigns. More than half of their bounty budget is reserved for mainstream media, social media, and signature bounties.
Hopefully, the term ICO bounty is closer to you than before. As you can see the ICO bounties have a lot of marketing potential for startups on a limited budget. You can incorporate them into pre and post-ICO efforts to maximize their effectiveness.

Bowman Offshore Bank Transfers: Owning an offshore company is still not illegal

Bowman Offshore Bank Transfers: Owning an offshore company is still not illegal 

# data[].attributes.body
Even if the newspapers say it is.

President Macron – of France was elected yesterday. Earlier his emails were leaked and showed that he had signed an operating agreement with an LLC in Nevis. This means he was an owner of an offshore company in Nevis (insert exaggerated gasp from the general public!)

Online media and Newspapers have attacked him saying that:

Documents Indicate That Emmanuel Macron May Be Engaging In Tax Evasion

Documents leaked online today appear to show that French Presidential Candidate Emmanuel Macron entered into an operating agreement for a Limited Liability Company (LLC) in the Caribbean island of Nevis… and that the company may have had a business relationship with a bank which has been previously involved in tax evasion cases in the Cayman Islands. Macron claimed he was not concealing assets or holding secret offshore accounts less than a month ago.

The first document is an operating agreement drawn up on May 4th, 2012 to form “La Providence LLC” under the 1995 Nevis Limited Liability Company Ordinance bearing Mr. Macron’s name and signature. La Providence is the name of Macron’s former high school in Amiens, where he first met his wife. The decision to form a company in Nevis is suspect, as the Nevis Confidential Relationship Act prohibits the disclosure of information and guarantees the secrecy and privacy of offshore LLCs in Nevis. Information about company owners is not published nor is it available to the public.

Well firstly – that owning an LLC offshore does not matter in the greater public opinion, even in the most hotly contested presidential race in 2017, in France, where numerous parties vie for the leadership role.

Secondly – if you are going to be private, perhaps don’t name your entity after the place where you went to high school. Be smart and pick an obscure, shelf company like name which can’t be tied to you (unless you for some reason want it to be). But if it’s just a holding company for personal investment assets (as it looks like in the case of Macron), then don’t name it after your high school. Especially if you are like Macron and you ended up marrying your high school teacher.

Thirdly, as is noted in the article – Offshore LLC’s in Nevis are protected from the general public. However, due to CRS and AEOI disclosures, the information on the accounts may be shared with governments starting in 2018. Again – LLC’s in Nevis are 100% legitimate, useful operating entities.

We employ them when we need an entity with strong asset protection, and oftentimes when there is a sole owner. This is because IBC’s (international business companies) do not have the same protection for single owners. Overall LLC’s are more flexible than IBC’s and generally easier to use in a holistic wealth planning activity. In any event – a perfectly legal use of an offshore entity by a prominent member of the public.

It’s almost as if the newspapers want to demonize this normal activity, so that you, the normal hard working entrepreneur – assume that this is illegal.

Owning an offshore LLC is 100% legal.

It’s safer than being onshore (at least from perspective of avoiding costly frivolous lawsuits)

It can save you thousands (or millions, depending on your net worth).

What the media says is largely meaningless and should not affect your decision making

Dorset is situated on the south coast of England, between Devon in the west and Hampshire in the east - much of the County is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Few major roads run through the county, allowing Dorset to retain much of its rural character and charm.

Dorset is a delightful county, with a variety of contrasting landscapes, consisting of coastline with high cliffs, inland there are wooded hills and fertile valleys, rolling chalk hills and wild heath-land.

There are several interesting towns along the coast, starting in the east at Christchurch, a Saxon town on the estuaries of the Rivers Avon and Stour, with a picturesque harbour and magnificent 11th century Priory Church.

Bournemouth is a vibrant city, with beautiful sandy beaches, gardens, shopping, night life and entertainment for holiday makers. Poole has the second largest natural harbour in the world after Sydney - you can explore the old quarter by the quayside, with many historic buildings.

'The Isle of Purbeck' is a coastal peninsula below Pool harbour. The towns of Wareham, encircled by its original Saxon walls and home of the oldest church in Dorset, and Swanage, a seaside resort and home to the famous local Purbeck stone often referred to as 'marble', are worth visiting. Nearby, the historic village of Corfe Castle is a beauty spot not to miss.

Weymouth is a popular seaside town with many interesting family attractions. Bridport also has a Dorset Tourist Information centre - the town is known for rope and net making and still makes tennis nets for Wimbledon, the All England Tennis Club.

Portland is connected to the mainland by a causeway at the eastern end of Chesil Beach, a barren pebbled beach, stretching from Weymouth to Bridport. In the hills behind the Chesil Bank, the old village of Abbotsbury is famous for the 600 year old bird sanctuary, Abbotsbury Swannery. Portland is the origin of the stone used by Sir Christopher Wren for St. Paul's Cathedral and for the UN headquarters in New York.

West Dorset's coast is known as 'Jurassic Coast' - it has been awarded World Heritage Site status, and consists of rocks formed during the Jurassic Period. This 25 mile stretch is fossil hunting country, with the beaches around Charmouth and Lyme Regis being the best places to hunt for fossils. Call at the tourist information centre in Lyme Regis for a guide to the area.

Lyme Regis is a charming historic town set on cliffs overlooking a spectacular bay with a 13th century harbour known as 'The Cob'. On a visit to Lyme Regis, Jane Austen was inspired to make it the setting for 'Persuasion', it was also the setting for John Fowles book 'A French Lieutenants Woman'.

Inland, large areas of Dorset are designated as Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, such as the Blackmore Vale in the north of the County, a delightful rural area with a lush landscape, with many footpaths and bridal ways. The Dorset Downs in the centre of the County consists of chalk hillsides and, to the south, ancient woodland.

At Cerne Abbas, you can see the Cerne Abbas Giant, carved into the chalk hillside. Cranborne Chase, was once a royal hunting forest, where the deer can still be spotted and native wildlife and plants flourish.

Other towns of note include:

Blandford Forum - a gracious Georgian town on the banks of the River Stour, with a fine church and town hall and host to the Great Dorset Steam Fair each September.

Dorchester is the County town, where you can still see the remains of the original Roman town wall. Dorchester is at the heart of Thomas Hardy country - his birthplace at nearby Higher Brockhampton, and Max Gate, his home in the town, can both be visited.

Shaftsbury is a gem of a Saxon hill top town, founded by Alfred the Great. The Abbey ruins and herb gardens are open to the public. Gold Hill behind the town hall, is a steep cobbled street with tiny cottages, a quintessential English scene.

Sherborne, in the north of the County has a medieval high street, a superb 15th century Abbey and two castles.

Wimborne Minster is named for its Minster church, which is unique for having two towers, a lantern tower of the late Norman period, and a later western tower of the 15th century. Visit the miniature town with 300 model buildings.

Dr.
Howard Marans: Two decades of prime orthopedic surgical care

# data[].attributes.body
For many years now, people in Southern California trust and respect Dr. Howard Marans’ specialty, along with his incredible effort in providing quality orthopedic surgical care. He’s one of the most distinguished orthopedic surgeons in Orange County, and his team delivers expert medical care in a warm setting in the heart of Southern California.

Surprisingly, Sarah Hammer, a 2012 Olympic silver medalist, has been his patient. Along with Sarah, a lot of patients have made Howard their personal physician because of his safe and prompt care. He often treats conditions of the upper and lower extremities.

With his help, patients can return to their daily activities as soon as safely possible. He can discuss with the patients the nature of their injury, and impart methods on how to prevent it from happening again.

Howard also offers pain management to his patients. As we all know, pain is an unpleasant feeling or discomfort caused by injury, illness or emotional disorder. Diseases and inflammations are some of the causes of severe pain.

He’s a man of dedication. He always makes sure that he’s giving his best in giving a precise diagnosis, a comprehensive explanation of treatment options and expectations, and proper execution of the chosen treatment whether non-surgical or surgical. With this, it’s apparent that he has a busy practice for more than 20 years. His commitment to the field is beyond compare.

Howard Marans MD provides prompt care utilizing established orthopedic treatments and innovative surgical and arthroscopic procedures. You can be sure that you’ll get back to your softball league or return to play on your school team with the help of his expertise.

Importance of Orthopedic Surgeons

Most people suffer from various problems on their musculoskeletal system every year, which were rooted from an injury or a disease. This then results to a slow down and restriction of movements.

Therapy and non-invasive treatments can be done on individuals with minor disease or injury since these methods are more than enough to treat the problem of the musculoskeletal system.

In order to repair the problem of people suffering from an acute injury or fighting a serious disease, a surgery is needed. Orthopedic surgeons are responsible for manipulating the musculoskeletal system in the human body and repairing the injuries, as well as fighting the diseases that attack it.

The musculoskeletal system is composed of bones, muscles, ligaments, and other connective tissues that allow the body to move. Orthopedic surgeons dedicate their time treating this particular system of the body. Sports injuries, degenerative disease, and congenital diseases are mostly the culprits in attacking the musculoskeletal system. As mentioned earlier, these could make an individual suffer a loss of range of motion or experience limited mobility.

There’s a battlefield waiting for you if you’re an aspiring orthopedic surgeon. You’re advised to be completely prepared in order to conquer this endeavor. You must not give up despite the unimaginable difficulties because it’ll be all worth it in the end, once you’re rewarded with a degree and licensure for practicing in this highly competitive field of medicine.

The standard education system for an orthopedic surgeon includes four years of undergraduate study culminating in a bachelor’s degree, usually in biology, chemistry, or another field of science; four years of medical school training that includes two years of pre-clinical courses and an internship; and residency training.

Orthopedics has one of the longest residency training programs among other medical fields due to its intricate nature. Just imagine what Dr. Howard Maransand other orthopedic surgeons have been through. Orthopedic surgeons have to take five years residency program with one year of general surgery training followed by four years of training in orthopedic surgery. More than 600 students complete residency training programs every year in the United States.

Some orthopedic surgeons continue their training in a sub-specialty within orthopedic surgery, which includes foot and ankle surgery, hand surgery, musculoskeletal oncology, orthopedic trauma, pediatric orthopedics, shoulder and elbow surgery, spine surgery, surgical sports medicine, and total joint reconstruction (arthroplasty).

Orthopedic surgeons can specialize in various sub-specialties, but first, Howard Marans MD wants you to remember two important things:

1. Sub-specialties normally require additional training in a fellowship program, which

lasts 1-2 years (depending on the research requirements) after the completion of a residency.

2. An individual who specializes in one of those sub-specialties isn’t always considered an orthopedic surgeon. For example, neurologists specialize in spine surgery, but they’re not orthopedic surgeons.

Howard agrees that orthopedic surgeons are, indeed, true warriors. The path to becoming an orthopedic surgeon has a lot of obstacles and hardships, and without serious dedication and strong will, an individual might fail to succeed in this field of medicine. Orthopedics has a long and difficult educational program, but for those who survived this battle will find themselves in a well-paid, highly competitive field with a first-class group of peers.

There are more than 20,000 practicing orthopedic surgeons and residents, according to the U.S. Department of Labor, and they represent only 3-4% of all practicing physicians. There are several factors that contribute to the salary of an orthopedic surgeon, it includes the location of his workplace, years of experience, and the size of the business, which are often similar to any career field. Each year, an orthopedic surgeon in the U.S. could earn around $440,979, which is considered as the median salary.

Howard Marans MD specializes in arthroscopic surgery, open reduction and internal fixation of fractures, sports medicine, and the treatment of arthritis. His team can take good care of you if you have any problems with your shoulder, knee, hand, wrist, elbow, or ankle. He serves more than 20 cities in the entire Southern California and Fountain Valley.

A lot of people in the region choose Howard as their personal surgeon because they strongly believe that he’s the most capable physician to perform a surgery on the injured part of their body. He’s also working very hard every day to give his patients a quality orthopedic surgical care, so all the recognitions he’s receiving right now is a strong testament that he’s doing an excellent job in orthopedics.

# data[].attributes.body
The feet and ankles are responsible for bearing the weight of the entire body and supporting the body in walking, standing, running, jumping, and more. As a result of falls, trauma, overuse, or wear and tear, a number of foot and ankle injures can develop. Dr. Howard Marans treats foot and ankle injuries with non-surgical methods and with surgery as necessary.

Common Injuries

Symptoms such as foot or ankle pain, swelling, or difficulty moving the foot or ankle should always be evaluated by a physician. Some potential causes of symptoms include:

Achilles tendon tear – The Achilles tendon attaches the heel to the calf muscles. The Achilles tendon can tear as a result of sports, overuse, or wearing high heels. Tears may be partial or complete.

Achilles tendonitis – In Achilles tendonitis, the Achilles tendon becomes inflamed but does not tear.

Bunions – Bunions are bumps at the base of the big toe that develop when the big toe points toward the next toe. Bunions develop progressively over many years.

Osteoarthritis – Osteoarthritis is the degeneration of one or more of the joints in the foot or ankle. In this condition, the cartilage, and sometimes the bone, breaks down, resulting in inflammation.

Plantar fasciitis – The plantar fascia connects the heel bone to the toes and forms the foot’s arch. Plantar fasciitis occurs when the plantar fascia becomes inflamed. It’s common among joggers and people with flat feet.

Fractured ankle – The ankle is made up of the tibia, fibula, and talus. The tibia is the shinbone, the fibula is a smaller bone in the calf, and the talus is a small bone that lies between the heel bone and the tibia and fibula. Any or all of these bones can be fractured. Fractured ankles vary in severity.

Fractured calcaneus – A heel bone fracture usually occurs as a result of trauma, such as falling from a height or being in a car accident. A fractured calcaneus is a serious injury that can cause significant disability.

Fractured toe – One or more of the toes can sustain a fracture. Fractured toes are painful, but not usually serious.

Sprained ankle – The ligaments that support the ankle become stretched or torn. This can occur as a result of twisting the ankle in a fall, or even just by stepping the wrong way.

Non-Surgical Treatment

Every situation is unique, but many foot and ankle injuries can be treated non-surgical. Rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) can often alleviate issues like sprained ankles and Achilles tendonitis. Simple fractures can be treated with casting or splinting. Physical therapy can be used to treat a wide range of foot and ankle problems.

Foot and Ankle Surgery

On the other hand, severe issues or problems that can’t respond to conservative methods need to be treated with foot and ankle surgery. During foot and ankle surgery, the doctor opens up the affected part of the foot or ankle and treats it. This can involve a wide range of foot and ankle surgery techniques, from repairing tendon and ligament tears to performing open reduction and internal fixation on broken bones.

When to See a Doctor

Some foot and ankle conditions occur as a result of trauma, and it’s immediately obvious because of the pain and difficulty moving the foot that something is wrong. If severe pain occurs or you are unable to move the foot, you should see a doctor or go to the hospital immediately. If pain is mild to moderate, you may use RICE for a few days and then decide whether to call a doctor.

Other times, the condition develops slowly over time. It’s important to recognize that having foot or ankle pain on a regular basis isn’t normal, and to schedule a consultation with Dr. Howard Marans if you notice symptoms.

An organization, much like a person, has its own spine. It is a set of ten “vertebrae” that must be defined AND aligned. Each of the ten must agree with all the other nine.

When one or more items on this spine are not aligned, you have problems. The result is inactivity, internal noise, no production, lack of team spirit and failure.

The basic problem in any organization is the misalignment of those items.

The subject of getting those items aligned and gotten into action is called management.

You cannot effectively manage without defining those items and getting them aligned.

Learn how to get those items aligned and you can get production and results occurring.

In this seminar you will learn:

- How to create the spine for your company and your life!

- How to remove all counter intentions and negative energy from your path to success.

- What is policy and why policy is so important.

- How to find your and your company’s goals.

- How to find your and your company’s purposes (yes, it is not the same as the goal).

- How to plan.

- What to plan.

- What you need to know FIRST, BEFORE you can plan.

- And much more…

The spine is a very powerful management TOOL that once you will learn, you will know you won and will have unshakable certainty on how to get others to win with you.

Meir Ezra --- The Japanese love fresh fish. However, the waters close to Japan have not held many fish for decades. So to feed the Japanese population, fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever.

The farther the fishermen went, the longer it took to bring in the fish. If the return trip took more than a few days, the fish were not fresh. The Japanese did not like the taste.

To solve this problem, fishing companies installed freezers on their boats. They would catch the fish and freeze them at sea. Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer.

However, the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen and they did not like frozen fish. The frozen fish brought a lower price.

So fishing companies installed fish tanks. They would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin. After a little thrashing around, the fish stopped moving. They were tired and dull, but alive.

Unfortunately, the Japanese could still taste the difference. Because the fish did not move for days, they lost their fresh-fish taste. The Japanese preferred the lively taste of fresh fish, not sluggish fish.

So how did Japanese fishing companies solve this problem? How do they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan? If you were consulting the fish industry, what would you recommend?

Too Much Money

As soon as you reach your goals, such as finding a wonderful mate, starting a successful company, paying off your debts or whatever, you might lose your passion. You don’t need to work so hard so you relax.

You experience the same problem as lottery winners who waste their money, wealthy heirs who never grow up and bored homemakers who get addicted to prescription drugs.

Like the Japanese fish problem, the best solution is simple. It was observed by L. Ron Hubbard in the early 1950's.

"Man thrives, oddly enough, only in the presence of a challenging environment." — L. Ron Hubbard

The Benefits of a Challenge

The more intelligent, persistent and competent you are, the more you enjoy a good problem.

If your challenges are the correct size, and if you are steadily conquering those challenges, you are happy.

You think of your challenges and get energized. You are excited to try new solutions. You have fun.

You are alive!

How Japanese Fish Stay Fresh

To keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies still put the fish in the tanks. But now they add a small shark to each tank. The shark eats a few fish, but most of the fish arrive in a very lively state.

The fish are challenged.

Recommendations

Instead of avoiding challenges, jump into them. Beat the heck out of them. Enjoy the game.

If your challenges are too large or too numerous, do not give up. Failing makes you tired. Instead, reorganize. Find more determination, more knowledge, more help.

If you have met your goals, set some bigger goals. Once you meet your personal or family needs, move onto goals for your group, the society, even mankind.

Don’t create success and lie in it. You have resources, skills and abilities to make a difference.

Put a shark in your tank and see how far you can really go!

Michael Keeley Cornerstone Research Economic and Financial Consulting and Expert Testimony PRACTICE DETAILS

Data Management and Security

The ability to work with large datasets is fundamental to many high-stakes matters. Cornerstone Research regularly works with datasets containing hundreds of millions of records. We have the staff expertise and the state-of-the-art, secure computing facilities to maintain, update, and manage the public and private data used for investigations and to support expert consulting and testimony. We can ensure ongoing data integrity over the potentially long time horizon of litigation and regulatory matters. We use cutting-edge information-retrieval and management tools to minimize business disruption and cost for our clients.

Maintaining the security of client information is of critical importance to us. Client data are housed internally and reside on secured servers. We use firewall protections, encrypt all traffic between our offices, and return or destroy any media containing client data.

Client Data Production

We have extensive experience with helping counsel manage the discovery process in complex litigation and investigations, including working with clients to efficiently extract information from their proprietary data in response to discovery requests by regulators and litigants. Our experience working with many prominent companies on high-profile matters has given us a deep understanding of the structures, protection, and use of highly confidential client data. Because the questions posed in these matters usually do not arise in the normal course of business, responding often requires the company to pull data from multiple platforms using customized code and to develop new documentation. Our experience allows us to reduce the cost and effort required to complete this work and to turn over accurate and responsive data.

In American society a huge amount of commerce takes place every day. It has become easier to purchase goods and services with credit, including credit cards. And the Internet has significantly increased the number and ease of these transactions.

With this ease comes the temptation to commit credit card fraud to obtain things we want or need, with money we don’t have, or simply by using someone else’s identity or credit information. Credit card companies make it easier by making it so easy to get a card and use it, with high credit limits and cash available.

Large dollar purchases and large numbers of purchases are made by hacking others’ computers to commit credit card fraud. People also simply use a friend or relative’s card, or an employer’s. These actions may be illegal under federal as well as state law.

Penalties

You may be investigated for bank fraud without your knowing it, and charged with a serious crime. The dollar amounts and your own criminal record affect the severity of the charge, which could include a prison sentence as well as stiff fines. If you are convicted, your criminal record can cause problems for you for years to come. You may find it difficult to find a job, an apartment, or get into college.

Burnsville Wire Fraud Attorney

Police have limitations on the ways they can collect evidence. They must respect your rights. Prosecutors must prove the case against you. If they do not have a strong case, they cannot convict you. They must show, for example, that you knew you were using someone else’s card, or that you yourself used your computer to commit a crime, and not someone else on your computer.
