What Can We Do? Look for early warning signs cont’d:
Long-term or “model” employees, who never take vacation or sick leave
Unexplained changes in an employee’s work behavior
Employees receiving calls at work from creditors or collection agencies
Employees who appear to have unusually close relationships with customers or vendors
These are just a few examples which may indicate potential fraudulent activity.

What Can We Do? Steps to mitigate risks:
Be aware of your surroundings and daily activities Ensure your area has proper internal controls and
segregation of duties Document what you observed Report your concerns to your immediate supervisor,
Dean/Chair, or the Office of Internal Audit http://audit.unl.edu
DO NOT INVESTIGATE POSSIBLE FRAUD YOURSELF!
