The Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) celebrates the annual International Fraud Awareness Week this year from November 14th to 20th.
Schneider Downs is proud to once again be a supporter of Fraud Week. We have a long and established role in the fraud investigation and awareness field, through the numerous investigations we’ve performed over the years and our sponsorship of the annual Fraud and Corruption Awareness Seminar. Our Consulting group includes several Certified Fraud Examiners (CFE), including the president of the Greater Pittsburgh chapter of the ACFE.
Some of the CFEs in our group have written Our Thoughts On articles, listed below. This year we chose a sports theme for our articles as a fun way to discuss topics that apply to many different professions and organizations and the games fraudsters play.
- Flag on the Play – Football and Health Care Fraud
- Foul Ball – John Ruffo Attends a Baseball Game
- Soccer Kickbacks – Red Cards and Red Flags
- Illegal Reception – Former NFL Wide Receiver Receives Fraudulent PPP Loans
- Alley-OOPS! Former NBA Players Indicted on Alleged Insurance Fraud Charges
While we may only focus on Fraud Week one week per year in this way, the professionals in our Consulting group educate, assist, and prepare our clients throughout the year with their unique fraud concerns.
About International Fraud Awareness Week
ACFE’s International Fraud Awareness Week is an opportunity for anti-fraud professionals and communities to come together to look at how far reaching the effects of fraud can be.
