2C:20-2. Consolidation of Theft Offenses; Grading; Provisions Applicable to Theft Generally.

a. Consolidation of Theft and Computer Criminal Activity Offenses. Conduct denominated theft or computer criminal activity in this chapter constitutes a single offense, but each episode or transaction may be the subject of a separate prosecution and conviction. A charge of theft or computer criminal activity may be supported by evidence that it was committed in any manner that would be theft or computer criminal activity under this chapter, notwithstanding the specification of a different manner in the indictment or accusation, subject only to the power of the court to ensure fair trial by granting a bill of particulars, discovery, a continuance, or other appropriate relief where the conduct of the defense would be prejudiced by lack of fair notice or by surprise.

You would be charged with a third degree crime which is punishable by a prison sentence up to five years. What is worse is that you could not expunge a conviction for this offense for ten years, during which time your ability to get a job would be greatly restricted.

Call me if you like.
