Won't get fooled again: The who, what, and why of fraud

Kelly Richmond Pope, CPA, CGMA, is a professor at DePaul University and the author of a book scheduled to be published later this month on fraud. Fool Me Once: Scams, Stories, and Secrets From the Trillion-Dollar Fraud Industry is designed to help people "see themselves or see their businesses in the stories" so that they can improve their defenses against fraud. Pope details an interactive game related to the book that can help educate business owners about fraud and the motivations of fraudsters.
