Is cashing out with a credit card a fraud?

Credit card cash-out is not necessarily a fraud. First of all, credit card cash-out means that the cardholder does not go through normal legal procedures, such as at a bank counter or ATM machine. Instead of withdrawing cash, use the credit limit in your credit card to withdraw cash through other means. At the same time, it does not pay corresponding fees to the bank. This is a credit card cash-out. Of course, the most common thing in our lives now is that some units or individuals use POS machines to specifically implement cash-out business. At the same time, he earned some high so-called handling fees through this act of cashing out. For this behavior, it often does not constitute fraud, but constitutes the crime of illegal business operations. Secondly, for some situations when cashing out a credit card, if under normal circumstances we can repay the cashed out amount on time and repay a credit card debt to the bank, it generally does not constitute a crime. At the same time, it should be noted that if the amount you cash out exceeds 10,000 yuan, and the bank calls for payment twice, and you have not paid it back within 3 months, it is a malicious overdraft, which involves the crime of credit card fraud.
