Best Answer

It depends upon several factors, the actual criminal charge (theft by deceit, grand larceny, etc.), the method (cc card stolen from the mail, used w/o permission of holder, fraudulently obtained, etc.) and the laws of the state where the crime was committed. The majority of criminal acts have lengthy state SOL's attached and in most cases such SOL's can be tolled by the court. "Tolled" is generally defined as the SOL being unaccepted as a defense or dismissal of charges.

For most cases of fraud it is 4 years from the time that the crime is discovered. In some instances, (parallel entity fraud, concealment of assets, etc.) the fraud might be considered a continuing offense, and thus there may be no statute of limitations (especially in cases of corporate bankruptcy).
