White-Collar crimes or Economic crimes have quite a broad scope and because this, it is hard to fit into a single definition other than saying it is a crime that involves business, fraud, money, or a combination, then it likely fits. One of the largest is known as identity theft, the stealing of personal information to cause fraud. As business continues to grow so too will white-collar crimes, in my opinion.
Computer-Related crimes or cybercrimes is a crime that lacks a standard definition. There are no real statistics for it as it is rarely reported, but at their essence, cybercriminals use a computer to cause harm to another computer or computer records. This can be from an attack that shuts down an email server, to using a computer to change bank records and steal money. As computers become more and more a part of our lives, so too will cybercrimes.
There are many groups associated with organized crime, and each has their own similarities and differences, but each is generally the same. From the Italian mob, to Japanese Yakuza, to Korean Soulpa rings, they are businesses designed around using violence and crime to turn a profit. The fastest growing threat is Russian organized crime, who seem to be the most sophisticated yet, using computers to make catching them harder. Organized crime has always been on the rise, and seems to be continuing that trend in recent years.
Bias crime, whether racially, sexually, or religiously motivated is quite simply the same thing; committing a crime against someone because of their actual or perceived membership in a particular group. The KKK and Neo-Nazis are perfect examples of this and studies show that Bias crimes are increasing in recent years.
Rituals are acts that center on a belief system that isn't necessarily recognized as a formal religion, when these beliefs use acts that are unlawful, then they become ritualistic crimes. Satanic cults are most often associated with ritualistic crimes, with kidnappings, animal mutilations, and even murders.
