What types of crimes are federal offenses?

There are thousands upon thousands of federal crimes listed on the books-in fact, a report issued by the American Bar Association over a decade ago found more than 3,000, and that number has continually expanded since then. Generally speaking, federal offenses include crimes which involve activity in more than one state, as well as crimes which would normally be charged on the state level but which occur on federal property. Drug crimes such as interstate or international trafficking, and white collar crimes including wire fraud, mail fraud, credit card fraud and identity theft are among the most widespread examples of federal crimes.
