Also known as economic crimes, white collar crimes are those that affect the economic well-being of an individual, business, or the government. Embezzlement is one type of white collar crime and occurs when an individual uses another party's assets for their own benefit without the owner's permission.

This offense is commonly committed by individuals who hold a position of trust and responsibility over a person’s or company’s finances, such as a banker, trustee, or lawyer. If they use that money for personal gain without the owner's authorization, they are guilty of a felony and may face prison time and fines ranging from thousands to even hundreds of thousands of dollars.
