FOR OFFICE USE ONLY

ften within the interviewing process, the

concept of gaining compliance is thought

of as being singularly directed at the doer

of the wrongful deed. But, that is not

always the case. Many times, the people who are on

the periphery of an inquiry — neutral third parties,

for example — may be less than enthusiastic to fully

cooperate with you, the interviewer. Whether the

unwilling interviewee is the target of the inquiry, a

possible co-conspirator or something else, your task

remains the same — transition the individual from

the “unwilling chair” to the “willing chair.”

I worked on a case a few years ago that serves

as a prime example of the value of obtaining

third-party information in order to break a case. As

part of a series of interviews related to an internal

theft, I interviewed someone whom the organisation

highly suspected was the culprit. Into the interview,

and after the application of a series of questions to

assess the individual’s veracity, my perception was

that this person was not the guilty party. Howev-

er, I did think he knew information that related to

the case. While my goal of gaining compliance

remained the same, my focus shifted from endeav-

oring to obtain an admission of guilt to gaining

cooperation.

THE WILLING CHAIR: Getting Cooperation

and Information During Interviews

When the interviewer tells the interviewee something, cognition tends to diminish. When an interviewer poses a question, cognition is activated.

I asked him how long he had worked for the com-

pany, how they had treated him and his perception

of the loyalty that the company had afforded him. I

ascertained that he felt strongly that the company had

been very loyal to him. At that point, I implemented a

series of specific, formulated questions, guiding him

to contemplate his responsibility to reciprocate that

loyalty back to the organisation. My goal was to have

his loyalty to the company take precedence over his

loyalty to his associate, whom he suspected was the

thief. I asked him:

“A loyal employee is going to do what is in the best

interest of the company, isn’t he?” He answered in the

affirmative.

“Isn’t it true that if a loyal employee had information

about this situation, he would feel a sense of obligation

to share it?” Once more, he answered in the affirmative.

Finally, I asked him, “What is it you know that I need

to know?”

After a period of silence, he looked down at the ta-

ble, took a deep breath, patted the table twice with his

right hand, looked me in the eye and said, “Well, there

is one thing.” “Tell me the one thing,” I responded. And

there we had it. He had transitioned from unwilling to

willing. While he had not done anything wrong, he was

holding back — deception by concealment.

The default setting for a conflicted mind tends to

be, “No.” Consequently, an interviewer with compli-

ance-gaining responsibilities must continue to rely on

his working tools — questions. When the interviewer

tells the interviewee something, cognition tends to

diminish. When an interviewer poses a question, cogni-

tion is activated.

Keys to Success: Be Vigilant, Find a Mentor

Britany Finnegan, CFE, is a mortgage fraud specialist for Capital One in McLean, Virginia. She shared some of her advice for being successful and effective in fight-ing fraud. One of her secrets: Find a strong mentor.

How did you get started in your line of work? My journey began in Florida as a receptionist for a Brit-ish vacation rental company from which I transferred to the mortgage division. I was excited, but little did I know the bubble would burst in the mortgage indus-try soon after. After a year, like many, I was forced to look for work and found myself employed within the field of quality assurance, until the company closed its doors due to the economic downturn. This was a blessing in disguise, as it led me to JPMorgan Chase. There I was able to expand my knowledge and ex-perience in the mortgage fraud division. After a few years, I was approached by an executive recruiter working on behalf of Capital One. Excited for the opportunity, I immediately accepted a position as a Fraud Examiner II for them. It was Capital One who encouraged me to obtain my Certified Fraud Examin-er (CFE) credential.

What are some of your day-to-day responsibilities in your role? Currently, I review closed mortgage loans that have either been referred to our department or fit a scope for possible suspicious activity. If any suspicious

activity is determined, a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) is filed and all corporate re-quirements are met.

Which types of cases (or subjects) are the most interesting to you, personally? Any new types of trends — it just amaz-es me what some individuals come up with and the time and effort put into committing fraud. I also enjoy the challenge of putting together all the pieces that help identify the full scope of all involved in the fraud.

What advice do you have for other fraud examiners who would follow in your footsteps? Simply put, seek a mentor. One of my current men-tors advised me to always be on the lookout for someone who you feel comfortable with that will share their knowledge and experiences. Knowl-edge is priceless and so is the wise advice mentors share. It’s your desire that will make this happen; desire transcends everything, which will produce fabulous results. n

that I applied in the above scenario and that will help

you, the fraud fighter, in your own interviewing:

• Assessment questions assist the interviewer in

evaluating the interviewee’s veracity.

• The application of questions specifically formulat-

ed to gain cooperation enables the interviewer to

identify barriers and gain compliance.

• A working knowledge of all of the questioning

formulations addressed in the course allows the

interviewer to make an informed decision as to

what to ask, how to ask and when to ask.

• Knowing the various forms of deception, and the

symptoms thereof, allows the interviewer to apply

appropriate questioning formulations, assess the

verbal, vocal and nonverbal responses of the

interviewee, and proceed accordingly.

Fraud Week 2014: Help Spread the Word

International Fraud Awareness Week is 16-22 November 2014, and organisa-

tions are gearing up for the week’s activities. While prevention and detection are undoubtedly year-round endeavors, Fraud Week provides a special opportunity to raise awareness worldwide and

spread the word that the best way to counter fraud is with a proactive,

rather than reactive, approach.

There is no cost to be an Official Supporter of Fraud Week, and it’s easy to sign up on FraudWeek.com. Official Supporters have access to free resources on-line, including white papers, PowerPoint presentations, podcasts and videos.

Among these resources is a new, printable handout that provides quick tips on preventing and detecting fraud. Ideal for sharing with clients and colleagues, these tips include:

1. Be Proactive. Adopt a code of ethics for management and employees. Evaluate your internal controls for effectiveness and identify areas of the business that are vulnerable to fraud.

2. Establish Hiring Procedures. Conduct thorough background investigations. Check educational, credit and employment history (as permitted by law), as well as references.

3. Train Employees in Fraud Prevention. Do workers know the warning signs of fraud? Ensure that staff members know basic fraud prevention techniques.

4. Implement a Fraud Hotline. Fraud is still most likely to be detected by a tip. Providing an anonymous report-ing system for your employees, contractors and clients will help uncover more fraud.

5. Increase the Perception of Detection. Communi-cate regularly to staff about anti-fraud policies, ways to report suspicions of misconduct and the potential consequences (including termination and prosecution) of fraudulent behavior.

Such advice is “old hat” for most fraud examiners. But for many business leaders — especially small business owners — fraud is still a threat, and any guidance to help them counter it is valuable. Most of all, such dis-cussions keep them thinking about fraud, which leads to more efforts to detect and prevent it. That is, after all, what Fraud Week is all about. n

Fraud Risk Management

The field of risk management has attracted in-

creased mainstream attention in the wake of the economic

meltdown as the public has begun to comprehend the neg-

ative effects of uncontained risk. Unfortunately, many risk

management professionals tend to underestimate the role

of fraud in the scope of their professional duties.

With organisations losing an estimated 5 percent of their

annual revenues to fraud, the need for a strong anti-fraud

stance and proactive, comprehensive approach to combat-

ting fraud is clear. As organisations increase their focus on

risk, they should take the opportunity to consider, enact and

improve measures to detect, deter and prevent fraud. This

course will explain how organisations can integrate anti-fraud

initiatives into their risk management programmes to:

• Identify, assess and manage fraud risks from all sources

• Support fraud risk management initiatives by establishing an anti-fraud culture and promoting fraud awareness throughout the organisation

• Develop a system of internal controls to address the entity’s fraud risks

• Address and respond to any identified instances of fraud

Using Data Analytics to Detect Fraud

According to the ACFE’s 2014 Report to the Nations on Occupational Fraud and Abuse,

proactive data monitoring and analysis is among the most

effective anti-fraud controls. Organisations who undertake

proactive data analysis techniques experience frauds that

are 60 percent less costly and 50 percent shorter than or-

ganisations who do not monitor and analyse data for signs

of fraud.

Using Data Analytics to Detect Fraud will introduce you to

the basic techniques of uncovering fraud through data anal-

ysis. Taking a software-independent approach, this 2-day

course provides numerous data analytics tests that can be

used to detect various fraud schemes. You will also discover

how to examine and interpret the results of those tests to

identify the red flags of fraud.

Inside the Fraudster’s Mind

Understanding the thoughts and feelings of a fraudster

can provide valuable insight to enhance an organisation’s

anti-fraud efforts. Knowing why fraudsters commit their

crimes can help you learn how to prevent fraud by

addressing the circumstances that lead to it.

Gaining insight into the way perpetrators rationalise their

actions can also help you deter others from forming simi-

lar rationalisations in the future. And possessing an under-

standing of the human element of fraud might give you an

edge in gaining an admission during an interview.

You Will Learn How To:

• Analyse the psychology of human behaviour

• Compare the categories of perpetrators and how they are correlated to the reasons perpetrators commit crimes

• Identify common motivations for committing fraud

• Categorise common critical thinking errors associated with unethical behaviour

• Recognise popular rationalisations for committing fraud

• Illustrate ways organisations can use this information as an important piece of the fraud-prevention-and-detection puzzle

ACFE Bookstore Staff Pick: Inside the Fraudster’s Mind

The ACFE Bookstore offers hundreds of resources including books and manuals, self-study CPE courses, the CFE Exam Prep Course, merchandise and more. In this interview, Andi McNeal, CFE, CPA, ACFE Research Director, offers her suggestion on one must-have ACFE re-source to help you in your fight against fraud.

What is your professional background and current role at the ACFE?My background is in public accounting. I worked for a small, regional CPA firm doing tax and audit work before joining the ACFE. I am currently the Director of Research for the ACFE; in this role, I oversee the development and produc-tion of the ACFE’s educational materials and publications.

What ACFE bookstore product would you recommend as a beneficial resource to CFEs?Inside the Fraudster’s Mind, a workbook and video self-study course, explores the psychological and criminological aspects of fraud.

Why would CFEs be interested in this product?Determining why fraudsters undertake their schemes is the foundation of effectively combatting fraud. From the outside, fraud perpetrators look just like everyone else. But identifying and understanding their unique thinking patterns provides insight that is invaluable for fraud prevention, detection and investigation. Inside the Fraudster’s Mind analyses real fraud cases and uses video footage of convict-ed fraudsters to illustrate the human elements that are at the heart of these crimes.

How is the information in this product useful for CFEs in their professional roles?No matter what professional role a CFE is in, an understand-ing of the psychological factors that lead to fraud is a crucial part of being successful at his or her job. This knowledge assists CFEs in developing and implement-ing ethics and compliance programmes, conducting fraud awareness training, assessing and evaluating fraud risks,

analysing potential red flags, conducting interviews and identifying deception. Un-derstanding the mindset and motives behind white-collar crimes and incorporating this perspective into all anti-fraud initiatives will help CFEs more effectively prevent, detect and investigate fraud. To learn more, see pg. 24. n
