Each scheme is illustrated with real-life case studies submitted to the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) by examiners who aided in the case resolutions.

With tips and techniques to help spot the "red flags" of fraud, comply with recent regulations, and develop and implement effective preventative measures, Joseph T. Wells—founder and Chairman of the ACFE—provides fraud examiners, auditors, investigators, loss-prevention specialists, managers and business owners, criminologists, human resources personnel, academicians, and law enforcement professionals with a landmark desktop resource.
