Is Fraud Addictive ?
Basic
Description
Many fraudsters describe their crimes as an addiction — they know they shouldn’t keep stealing, but they can’t stop. After an addiction to prescription opioids and serving almost 14 months in Federal prison for a white-collar crime, Jeff Grant started a ministry to help white collar criminals re-enter society and avoid making the same mistakes that landed them in prison.
In this on-demand webinar, ACFE President Emeritus, John Gill, talked to Grant about the circumstances of his own crimes and how they have helped him understand the mindset of the fraudsters he has counseled.
