The best way to tackle fraud is to learn from fraud that has occurred
in the past.
Construction
fraud refers to illegal business practices committed by individual contractors
or contracting firms hired to renovate, repair, or (re)build residential
properties.
Construction
fraud in the residential sector may also be referred to as ‘home improvement
scams.’ Construction fraud encompasses a range of issues, from shoddy work and
using substandard materials to escalating project costs and over-billing.
Construction
fraud often ends up costing the victim twice because apart from losing a significant
amount to the fraudster—whose inferior work may cause damage to previously
undamaged parts of a home—a legitimate firm may also have to be paid to bring
the work up to standard or repair the damage.
In this CPE Audit Course, we will look at some of the cases in
the headlines now. We will also talk about controls and other strategies to
implement to prevent fraud from happening on your projects.
