Abstract

Crimes committed with electronic means of payment undermine the financial system stability and economic security of the state. The preliminary investigation bodies may qualify unlawful mercenary taking and conversion of another person’s property using an electronic means of payment, including a debit or credit card, as fraud or theft depending on the criterion of secrecy. Larceny of the payment instrument must be regarded as preparation, attempted or completed crime depending on the possibility to manage the victim’s bank account and its implementation, since the sums of money are placed (stored) in a credit institution until they are disposed (spent).
