There are three elements to mail and wire fraud:
- Intent;
- A “scheme or artifice to defraud” or the obtaining of property by fraud; and,
- A mail or wire communication.
Mail fraud does not require that the mailing cross state lines; however, wire fraud does require that the wire communication cross state lines.
Fraud is defined as a scheme or plan used to deprive another of the intangible right of honest services. So if you try to obtain another persons money, property or right by dishonest means, and you use the mail service to do it, you can face 30 years in a Federal prison.
