A: A criminal defense attorney should advise here, but you posted last week, and the "Identity Theft" category heading may have caused the central element of your matter - criminal defense in a fraud case - to be overlooked. A city or region wasn't included in your post - that might have also resulted in the question being overlooked. Instead of discussing a pending criminal case on public forums, which criminal defense attorneys would advise you against doing, it might be better to reach out to attorneys to discuss in confidentiality. It could be difficult for any attorney to offer you meaningful guidance based on the brief facts provided. An attorney who would advise you on a defense would need to know much more about the matter. Good luck
