Fraud Investigation FAQ’s
1) What are the most common types of fraud in small businesses?
Fraud committed by employees is the most common type of fraudulent activities uncovered. The perpetrator is usually a trusted, long-time employee.
2) What types of red flags may indicate employee fraud is being committed?
Employees who have too much responsibility in one or more departments, those who do not go on vacation, or are living a lifestyle beyond their means are common red flags that may indicate fraudulent activities.
3) My business has an annual audit by a CPA firm. Won’t that uncover fraud?
No. An external audit is not designed to uncover or necessarily detect fraud.
4) What can I do to protect my business and its assets from fraud?
The first step to prevent fraud from occurring or detect if it is happening is to have an internal control assessment by a certified fraud investigator in Charlotte NC who has years of experience designing and implementing internal controls.
