Best Answer

Fur Collar crime was crime committed by nobility. It's similar to what we call white-collar crime now. One common type of Fur collar crime was to capture higher nobles and ransom them back to their kingdoms. It occurred because nobles wanted to increase their own power and wealth through the ransom money. Also Fur-Collar crime was often unpunished since most of the criminals would capture distant nobles making it cheaper to pay the ransom than to take the nobles back by force in the 14th and 15th centuries.
