Fraud Investigation & Prevention
Fraud Investigation & PreventionAlthough it is generally acknowledged that fraud is a serious and costly problem for its victims, the full extent of the problem is unknown. A routine audit seldom uncovers fraud and the majority of fraud goes undetected. Much of the fraud that is detected is not reported or prosecuted. Fraud, by its very nature, involves deception, trickery, concealment and falsehood and is limited only by the opportunities and imagination of the fraudster. Reports issued by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners have indicated that approximately 6% of an organization’s revenue is lost as a result of fraud. Since most fraud investigations are based upon suspicions about a certain type of fraud or a certain individual, it may be necessary to engage the expertise of a trained fraud examination specialist. Fraud Investigations Piccerelli, Gilstein & Company, LLP has trained professionals who specialize in the detection and prevention of fraud. Through various investigative and analytical procedures used to gather evidence, our fraud examiners can help to determine if fraud did occur, estimate the extent of monetary loss or damages, and determine who committed the fraud.
