Bankruptcy fraudThe Perpetrator files a notice of bankruptcy. He then approaches each of his creditors (who have received a cop of the notice of bankruptcy) and tells each one in turn that they are the special one that he wants to see get paid at least something. The creditor often settles for 10% of the amount owed. Once a settlement with one creditor is reached, the Perpetrator approaches the next creditor, and so on until all creditors have been settled with at a small fraction of the outstanding amounts owed. The Perpetrator then withdraws his petition for bankruptcy, have extinguished most of his debt for a small fraction of the original amount.
