Does anyone know what happens to someone accused of mail fraud. It was nothing serious, this person changed someones address on a bill by writing a letter as if the letter was that person asking them to change there address on file. The person this was done too is pursing it. They are also pursing the wrong person. But pretty sure shes gonna stick with the first person. Can anyone help with this matter? And is there a first offense defense?

No one was not admitting to not doing something. She is wanting an answer on what she should expect

Why do people have to judge? She is only looking for an answer to her question. Not advice about minding her own affairs or admitting or not admitting to anything. Unless you know the answer dont judge just answer. This is a question and answer segment not a pass judgement segment.

The technical term for what you're calling a "first offense defense" is a guilty plea.
Mail Fraud is a felony, one that, in some jurisdictions, carries penalties of up to 20 years in prison. Rather than discussing defenses here, it would be prudent to consult a criminal attorney in your area.

Sadly, hire a lawyer if this is a BIG deal. That, and mind your own affairs in the future, not someone else's!

If you did it, you should admit it.
