Overview

Everyone is aware of well-known "textbook" fraud cases such as Enron and WorldCom. Many such cases happened many years ago. To begin our study of accounting fraud, let's conduct research to gain an understanding of more recent fraud cases that have made the news. Search current news to find an article regarding a company that experienced an accounting fraud incident in the last two years.

  • Note the events that contributed to the fraud.
  • Identify the key players.
  • Discuss the outcome or results of the fraud.<
  • Recommend changes that should be made in the control environment to prevent the fraud recurrence. Add three scholarly article citations and a PDF attachment of the article
