4 Motivation Opportunity Rationalization
5 Overwhelming desire to appear wealthy Family needs (housing, medical, education, etc.) The addict (gambling, alcohol, drugs, sex) High personal debt Thrill-seeker (I bet I can beat the system and away with it)
6 Access to cash, assets or inventory Ability to conceal the act In a position where there are little o no separation of duties Minimal management oversight
7 Temporary solution to Financial Need It s just a loan. I ll pay it back as soon as this is over. Entitlement I m not getting paid enough for the work I do Higher Purpose I need this more than they do. Nobody will miss it Revenge So, they think they can take advantage of me!

12 Secretive Reluctant to provide info to oversight bodies e.g. auditors Dominate decision making Tend to bowl people over or rush Regularly overrides internal controls because Do it because I said so
13 Hires staff who lack experience, skills, talent or confidence (least likely to detect a fraud scheme or report the boss if detected) Frequent changes in professional relationships Changes in banks Changes in attorneys Changes in auditors
14 Stealing cash, inventory or assets Payments to fake companies Using entity monies for personal expenses Opening a secret bank account to deposit incoming checks Collusion and kickback schemes Over payment for goods or services received or payment for goods and services not received Payroll fraud ghost employees/contractors
