Prevention is the heart of any fraud mitigation program. But sometimes internal controls fail and unethical employees steal. If you suspect fraud, act quickly to preserve evidence. It’s usually best to hand an investigation over to experts such as your attorney and a forensic accountant. But before they arrive on the scene, secure paper documents related to the possible fraud. Digital evidence requires more expertise. So provide training to IT staffers before the need for a fraud investigation occurs. At the very least, they should know to stop routine data destruction immediately. Contact us for help investigating fraud.
