ENG2533. Cracking the Case: Real-World Examples of White-Collar Crime (FIN, NAA, FMA)

This session explores the role of Forensic Accountants within the FBI from case inception to conviction. Through two real-world case studies, presenters will offer an in-depth look at financial investigations, fraud detection, data analysis, and the FBI's role in deterring theft and prosecuting individuals for fraud. The first case study delves into a white-collar crime case involving a financial adviser who defrauded clients out of millions. The second case study outlines a multi-defendant international scam network, expounding on cyber fraud scheme types, money laundering, the evolution of criminal networks, and an explanation of what we can collectively do about it.
