Art Forgery is a white collar crime that is on the rise. Art is a multi-billion dollar market and selling an imitation of an artwork can be very lucrative. Art forgery is often a felony or even a federal crime due to the interstate nature of the art business.
It is of course difficult, if not impossible, to prove forgery by the testi- mony of incompetent witnesses. In many localities there is no special wit- ness qualified to testify effectively on the technical subject of forgery, espe- cially in connection with difficult cases involving clever forgeries.
Charges of forgery are categorized as a Class 4 felony., which expose a person to prison terms of 1.5 minimum to 3.75 maximum in prison, for non-dangerous forgery offenses. Penalties for conviction of forgery charges in Arizona include jail, restitution, community service, and supervised probation.

Forgery is a white-collar crime because it typically involves individuals in business, government, or finance who seek monetary gain through illegal means. White-collar crimes generally are financially motivated and non-violent in nature.
The act of forgery refers to the process of making, altering, or issuing a false document, while possessing a forged instrument involves having control over the forged document with the intent to use it for fraudulent purposes.
