The Human Element of Fraud Certification

Fraud can occur in any sector and it is important that employers and workers alike understand the technicalities and practical implications involved. However, most people overlook the human element of fraudulent activity, despite the fact that the psychology of fraud can help us prevent it happening in the first place.

In this course, you will learn why some people commit fraud, how they rationalise their own actions and the motives underpinning criminal activity in general.

 

What You Will Learn:

  • The traits and characteristics of individuals most likely to commit fraud
  • Six reasons people commit fraud and why otherwise law-abiding citizens may become fraudsters
  • The six primary motives that drive people to commit crime
  • The six most common rationales behind a decision to commit fraud, including the belief that “everyone else does it”
  • How the Fraud Triangle helps law enforcement investigate fraud, and how the work of Freud can help you gain insight into the psychology of fraud
