Abstract

The article is devoted to practically significant and fundamental aspects in the investigation of fraud in the field of lending – the analysis of investigative versions and investigative situations. These two components set the direction of the investigation and affect its dynamism. In situations of investigation of credit fraud, the above is of particular importance, since credit fraudsters quickly eliminate traces of the crime and promptly realize the stolen property. Moreover, the growth of crimes in the field of lending is growing rapidly, credit fraudsters are adapting to modern realities, inventing and improving ways of stealing credit funds, which poses a threat to both the economic security of the country and the development of trade. A correct understanding of typical investigative situations, a logically competent construction of investigative versions will allow you to quickly begin the process of investigating credit fraud, to approach the production of investigative actions in a structured manner. Thanks to the generalization and systematization of the rich experience of forensic scientists on the issue of putting forward investigative versions and assessing investigative situations that develop at the initial stage of the investigation of crimes, the authors of this article were able to offer an up-to-date typification of investigative situations that takes into account the realities of the lending sector and the ability of investigative authorities to investigate credit fraud.

The purpose of the research is: the study of problems related to the investigation of fraud in the field of lending, the study of the most likely investigative situations that arise during the investigation of this crime; typification of investigative situations that develop at the initial stage of the investigation of credit fraud.

The results of the research made it possible to identify problematic aspects in the investigation of credit fraud and develop their own criteria for the typification of investigative situations that develop at the initial stage of the investigation of fraud in the field of lending. In particular, the classification of investigative situations is based on: the availability of information about the subject of criminal encroachment; the totality of information available to the investigator about the nature and volume of unreliable data provided from the attacker to the lender to obtain loan funds. By analyzing typical investigative situations of the initial stage of the investigation of credit fraud, it was possible to determine both the patterns of criminal activity and the algorithm of the investigator's actions to organize the investigation of the crime.
