The Fraud Law Alert is a practical blog focusing on useful developments about fraud every company in California needs to know. Fraud is widespread and takes place in many contexts, such as employee-to-employer, business-to-business, business-to-consumer, business-to-government, and investor-to-institution. One prominent kind of fraud in nearly every organization is employment fraud, where, for example, an employee falsifies vendor invoices or other company records to embezzle company funds. Preventing such losses begins with understanding how widespread fraud is and then implementing internal financial controls and retaining top notch auditors as an external control. Recovering related losses, involves pursuing the fraudster, anyone to whom assets were transferred by the fraudster or who acted in concert with the fraudster (e.g., fraudulent transfer, conspiracy, alter ego, agency, aiding/abetting), as well as any other viable recovery source. Employment fraud, of course, is just one kind of fraud. The Fraud Law Alert helps your company keep fraud top of mind so that you’re equipped to prevent or minimize fraud losses and also recover them.
