For this discussion, choose a fraud scheme from Chapters 15, 16, or 17. Educate yourself on your particular selected scheme, including some outside research to broaden your understanding. Post a 3 to 4 paragraph summary of the following:
Summary description of the fraud scheme (make sure it is a specific scheme and not a category)
Educate us regarding the symptoms and warning signs of the particular scheme
Summarize a case study example of the fraud scheme, either from research or from personal experience of the fraud in your life or that of someone close to you
Discuss methods of prevention for your selected fraud scheme, including how you can educate others in your life to help protect them
Please be sure to cite any outside resources that you may use
You will not see other posts until after your initial post
As always, in addition to your original posting, it is very important to support and interact with your fellow classmates. Therefore, you should post at least three thoughtful, substantive responses/interactions with your classmates regarding their posting and experiences. Please post your original post no later than the end of the day on Friday to allow adequate time for interaction and responses. The discussion will end on Monday at midnight.
I look forward to this discussion, your insights, and your shared experiences; see you in the discussion forum.
