درباره این کتاب:
A consistent view across many investigators of fraud, including myself, is that fraud is, arguably, the creator of more criminals than any other area of crime. The temptations which reach and ‘turn’ people who last week either had no criminal history – or in any case had no notion to commit a crime of this kind of aggravated dishonesty – are too much to ignore. The numbers of fraud offenders swell at a frenetic rate in all manner of business or other opportunist situations and places. Fraud as both a crime and an entity also ranges from levels that perplex the work of both the investigation and prevention of it. Hence, as a crime, fraud brings a unique set of problems not usually present in other criminal scenarios. The above statement is not to be confused or misunderstood to mean that corruption (or money laundering) is less serious than fraud. Nor is it the case that corruption is more serious than fraud, albeit that media reporting of corruption carries a higher emotive character of public and business community awareness. In fact, the reporting of fraud tends to be coded or sporadic. A high?profile fraud case will attract a news headline, but it needs to be exceptionally serious, whereas corruption is spread across national newspapers and TV news, and even splashed around social media sites openly by community members and non?professional people commenting on financially driven crime. There is no attempt made in this book to explain why this is so, but merely to highlight an irony, in that pitching and achieving ‘fraud awareness’ even to some professionals is a more arduous task than that of publicising or fostering understanding of corruption initiatives. In this context fraud plays second fiddle to corruption, yet fraud is as rampant as any other economic crime. Therefore in writing this book, I convey the notion that investigating fraud is the ultimate challenge in investigating crime. That is if we choose to make the effort needed, and surmount the hurdles we must overcome in investigating fraud at any level or scenario.
