Yeah, definitely a procurement fraud. the employee will get the company to buy as much as possible, very quickly, then disappear. It sounds simple, but it will inevitably end in tears before bedtime for the crooked employee. Much better to sneak snaller amounts through over a longer time span. As I said before though, most people who try accountancy frauds are unaware of the controls in place or the trail they leave. You never hear of accountants defrauding people, do you? :)

This[^] is one of my favorite shows.  Amazing how gullible people can be - even those who ought to have known better. /ravi

Just heard back from Amazon (pretty quick, methinks): "Our investigations team will look into the situation and take appropriate action." /ravi

I can see that you've researched this very carefully, and in great detail.

One of the courses you have to pass in order to get certified by CIMA is about fraud and embezzlement. It is a surprisingly large and interesting section of the curriculum.

That section is obviously funded by the Mafia, who was sick of their accountants getting caught.

Although they managed to get their conviction overturned (due to a courtroom error on the judges part) Arthur Andersen[^] were initially convicted for their part in the Enron debacle.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.
