This fraud manual represents Joe's personal experiences dealing with fraud in state agencies and local governments in the State of Washington. The manual describes a host of common fraud schemes perpetrated by trusted employees within the organization, as well as many important concepts about fraud. While these fraud schemes come from the public sector, the same schemes also occur in the private sector. So, there is plenty of information for everyone. The material is provided with the compliments of the author with the hope that readers will use the information to both deter and detect employee fraud in the workplace.
