Course Description

Sometimes, you wonder how people can form some of the scams that they do.

Though some of it is due to the gullibility of the victim, a lot of it is due to the mechanics and skills of the fraudster.

White-collar crime costs the United States more than $300 billion each year. It is surprisingly common, with one in every three Americans eventually becoming a victim. The criminals often dismiss these crimes as victimless, but those unfortunate enough to fall prey would disagree.

Those who are convicted of white-collar crimes frequently argue that they did not know their behavior could lead to a government investigation, much less a charge for a white-collar crime.

The spectrum of white-collar crimes has expanded since the definition of white-collar crime was introduced and understood by society. The main reasons for the increase in white-collar crimes are new technologies and increasing regulatory pressures in this field.

Catching white-collar criminals can be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Particularly within a large corporation or complex scheme, blame is easily shifted around and obfuscated until the trail goes cold.

In this Online CPE/CPD Auditing webinar, we will look at some of the tips and tricks used to lull people into their web of deceit.  We will also look at how these techniques can be used to catch them up during the interview.
