Planned Bankruptcy "Bust Outs":
This scheme is based on the perpetrator legitimately obtaining credit and using it to purchase inventory to sell at a profit with the intent to not repay creditors by filing for bankruptcy.  Perpetrators of this fraud often use trade shows to target many companies simultaneously and place multiple orders. This way they avoid prosecution under the U.S. federal mail and wire fraud statutes, since they don't use the mail or telephone lines to transmit the fraudulent information.
