Definition

  • COMMODITIES FRAUD refers to certain illegal activities involving futures contracts traded in the United States on organized exchanges such as the Chicago Board of Trade, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, the New York Futures Exchange, the MidAmerica Commodity Exchange, and the Kansas City Board of Trade. Commodities fraud pertains to exchange members who fail to register with the exchange, perform transactions with no economic purpose other than to generate profit for the member of the exchange, provide false or misleading information to customers or steal customer funds.Futures contracts are legally enforceable contracts, or agreements, where one party agrees to pay a certain price for a specified quantity of corn, soybeans, wheat, oil, petroleum, natural gas, or other commodity to be delivered on a specified date.
