What Happens If I Am A Resident Of New York, Pennsylvania, or Another State That Has Been Charged In New Jersey With Credit Card Theft or Fraud?

If you commit a violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:21-6, you can be arrested and it does not matter whether you are a resident of this state, NY, PA, Florida, Delaware or anywhere else. You should also know that if the stolen credit card, forged credit card, or the like, was discovered in your possession outside of New Jersey, you can actually face a criminal charge in two states. You definitely need to consult an experienced credit card theft lawyer when this occurs.
