According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) “white
collar” crime, which this course will refer to as corporate fraud is
“Those illegal acts which are characterized by deceit,
concealment, or violation of trust and which are not dependent
upon the application or threat of physical force or violence. These
acts are committed by individuals and organizations to obtain
money or services; or to secure personal or business advantage.”
This course will begin by reviewing the efforts being made by the
President of the United States and several other federal corporate
crime busting governmental bodies within the United States to
prevent fraud. The course provides statistics regarding corporate
fraud, common characteristics of individuals who are most likely to
commit fraud, and some steps that you can take to identify them.
The course identifies frequently occurring types of corporate
fraud and points out some processes and procedures which can
be put into place in order to prevent these types of fraud from
taking place. Several case studies are provided which will include
the type of fraud which was committed and the punishment for the
act.
