Businesses lose about 5% of their revenues to fraud each year. Businesses also perpetrate fraud by reporting fraudulent financial results. The aim of this course is to introduce you to Fraud Examination, which focuses on methods to detect fraud and best practices for preventing fraud in businesses. We will explore how to investigate fraud, from obtaining documentary evidence to interviewing witnesses, writing fraud reports, and testifying. We will also explore human behavior and the motivations and rationalizations associated with fraudulent behavior.
