Ethics Suite joins hundreds of organizations who have partnered with the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE), the world's largest anti-fraud organization and premier provider of #antifraud training and education, for the yearly #FraudWeek campaign held November 12-18, 2023.   Ethics Suite will once again focus on helping organizations develop their confidential reporting mechanisms and responses. According to the ACFE’s 2022 Report to the Nations, “Maintaining a hotline or reporting mechanism speeds up fraud detection and reduces losses… median losses were doubled at organizations without hotlines.” #frauddetection #fraudprevention #investigations #compliance #internalaudit #hotline

Did you know that we at RSM Australia Fraud & Forensic Services specialise in #investigativeduediligence or #opensourceintelligence / #osint. 💡 We recently conducted an #investigation for a #lawfirm who engaged us in a #dispute matter involving overseas entities and an individual based in Australia. It was alleged that the entities linked to this individual was providing sensitive and confidential information to clients and presenting it as its own, including using an identical naming convention. We used various investigative methods including relationship mapping, analysing official overseas register searches, domain searches and #socialmedia to link the individuals and entities together. It was a great outcome for the client with our team enjoying searching through the opensource information and finding the 'needle in the haystack' 👊 If we can help you or your client, please do not hesitate to reach out #fraudschemes #duediligence #scams #investigation #fraudprevention #fraudanalytics #fraudinvestigation #fraudawareness #fraudforensics #fraudster #fraudrisk #fraudsters #fraudtriangle #fraudscams #fraudinvestigations #frauddetection #fraudprotection #fraudfighters #fraudulent #fraudmanagement #scam #fraudalert #rsmforensics #rsmaustralia #cfe #acfe #acfemelbourne #integrity #integritymatters #deception #illegal #defraud #redflag #redflags #businessemailcompromise #bec #corporateintelligence #duediligence #forensic #forensics #forensicduediligence
