1. As long as the amount involved in fraud reaches more than 3,000 to 10,000 yuan, more than 30,000 to 100,000 yuan, and more than 500,000 yuan, it should be classified as a criminal case for trial and punishment;
2. If the amount involved in the crime of fraud is not reached, it does not constitute the standard for filing a criminal case, which belongs to a civil case and should be treated as a public security case.
The sentencing standards for fraud are as follows:
1, the amount of fraudulent public and private property is relatively large. Whoever commits this crime shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance, and shall also or only be fined;
2. If the amount is huge or there are other serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years;
3. If the amount is especially huge or there are other especially serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years or life imprisonment.
Sentence for fraud:
1, the amount of fraud is less than 4000 yuan, which is a fine;
2, more than 4000 yuan but less than 5000 yuan, for public surveillance;
3, 5,000 yuan, three months of criminal detention, each increase of 1670 yuan, the sentence is increased by one month;
4. 10000 yuan, six months' imprisonment, and for every increase of 1000 yuan, the sentence will be increased by one month.
To sum up, as long as it constitutes a crime, it is a criminal case, but in judicial practice, the implementation of fraud does not constitute a crime. If the amount of fraud is less than 3,000 yuan, it does not constitute a criminal offence. On the basis of 3,000 yuan, the standards for filing fraud vary from place to place.
