Understanding the Mindset of a Fraudster
CPE Credit: 8
Online Virtual Seminar | April 27-28, 2021
Course Level: Overview
Prerequisite: None
Once a fraud scandal goes public, the “what, when, where and how” become a matter of public record. But what about the “why”? What drives these individuals to lie, cheat and swindle? Understanding the path a fraudster takes from employee to criminal can provide valuable insight that can help strengthen your anti-fraud initiatives and make your fraud examinations more successful.
Take a fascinating look inside the mind of a fraudster during this 1-day ACFE course. Through discussions of human behavior, video interviews with convicted fraudsters and interactive problem-solving, you will gain a deeper understanding of motivations and personality traits common to many fraudsters.
