What you should know about white collar crime to protect your business and yourself.
- Did you know that corporate crime inflicts far more harm than all street crimes combined yet most people don’t understand it and the media often doesn’t cover these crimes to the same extent as violent street crimes.
- Did you know corporate crime is often violent crime? Did you know that since 911 and the war on terrorism became a national priority, corporate crime is under-prosecuted and that corporate crime prosecutors and investigators are underfunded?
- Did you know that employee rip offs from their employers take on average 18 months before they are discovered and that many companies don’t report when they are victims of crime allowing the fraudster to victimize other companies?
- Do you understand how cybercrimes are committed and present a huge and increasing threat to our businesses and to all of us personally.
