The best example for White Collar Crime is Corruption and bribery.

 

Within the field of criminologywhite-collar crime has been defined by Edwin Sutherland as "a crime committed by a person of respectability and high social status in the course of his occupation" (1939). Sutherland was a proponent of Symbolic Interactionism, and believed that criminal behavior was learned from interpersonal interaction with others. White-collar crime, therefore, overlaps withcorporate crime because the opportunity for fraudbriberyinsider tradingembezzlementcomputer crimeidentity theft, and forgery is more available to white-collar employees.
