It is an unfortunate truth that fraud exists in every coun-try and in every industry One of the most challenging parts of this continuing fight is understanding what goes on in the mind of someone who commits fraud What causes one person facing financial hardships to steal from his employer while another finds a more honest way to pay his bills And what goes through the mind of individuals as they are making that choice mdash that first decision mdash to become a fraudster How do they con-tinue to justify their actions to themselves as they carry out their schemes

As an anti-fraud profes-sional itrsquos important to look for the answers to those ques-tions You cannot effectively deter fraud unless you have a full and complete grasp of the different motivations and tipping points that might af-fect a fraudster I have found that interviewing fraudsters is one of the best tools to truly enter their minds Irsquom always surprised that anyone is willing to sit down and talk on cam-era about their crimes Even though we do not pay them for interviews there are at least a few people each year who are willing to talk candidly about their mistakes

Each story is interesting in its own right but when com-bined you begin to see the common thought patterns dis-played by these perpetrators before during and after the crime It is also important to examine different theories offered by experts mdash both past and present mdash about what causes some people to turn to fraud

One thing that has always stood out to me while try-ing to understand fraudsters is that the Fraud Triangle is alive and well Every so of-ten someone argues that the triangle is no longer relevant or needs to be revised But based on the interviews the ACFE has conducted over just the last four or five years it is just as relevant now as it was back in Dr Donald Cresseyrsquos day His basic theo-ry still holds up fraud is like-ly to occur if the subject has some kind of unshareable fi-nancial pressure a perceived opportunity to relieve that

pressure and the ability to rationalize his or her conduct so that there is a lessening of guilt or a feeling of justification

However as fraud examiners it is important to remember to exercise reasonable caution when evaluating any particular

individual Obviously some of the characteristics Irsquove seen displayed in fraudsters are also found in many people who do not choose a path of crime But under-standing and watching for the psychological signs of fraudsters can be immensely valuable in investigating a suspected perpetrator or even in identifying potential warning signs that merit further examination

I am excited to announce that the ACFE has developed a new 1-day class Un-derstanding the Mindset of a Fraudster We will also be offering a 4-hour version of the class as a Pre-Conference session at this yearrsquos 27th Annual ACFE Global Fraud Conference The seminar will examine fraudstersrsquo behaviors and motivations as well as the pressures opportunities and rationalizations for their frauds Through discussions about human behavior video interviews with convicted fraudsters and interactive problem-solving you will gain a deeper understanding of mindsets and personality traits common to many fraudsters

The motivation behind the course was simple We have video interviews with dozens of convicted fraudsters explaining what they did how they did it and what they were thinking at the time We also have a rich library of research on criminal behaviors What better way to teach fraud examiners about the mind of a fraudster than to pair up the research with our interviews And while the stories of the fraud cases are educational they are also entertaining After you see and hear some of the facts of these cases you will agree that truth is often stranger than fiction

A good fisherman understands how a fish reacts to different types of lures and water conditions A good fraud examiner understands how individuals react to different interview techniques and workplace controls Understanding more about the mindset of a fraudster will better prepare you to catch those people who travel outside the lines to enrich themselves at someone elsersquos expense

Career is About More than Numbers and Facts for Credit Suisse VP In his spare time David Bach CFE enjoys volunteering for organizations like the food bank in New York City and Habitat for Humanity helping to assist with disaster relief efforts in New Jersey and Louisiana Bachrsquos desire to work with people is also present in his career mdash he says the most rewarding aspect of his job is ldquothe people both my colleagues and those I examinerdquo In his current position as Vice President at Credit Suisse Bach says ldquoWhen people hear that Irsquom an auditor they automatically think I deal mostly with just numbers and facts But the reality is that much of my time involves talking to people about how they do their job and what they knowrdquo

Where were you born and raised I was born in New York City but I grew up on Long Island and now live there with my wife and children

What is your current role and what does it entail I am a vice president in Credit Suissersquos Global Internal Audit Department and am based in the New York office I conduct in-depth reviews of the bankrsquos internal controls surrounding front-office businesses and supporting operations My current fo-cus is primarily on conduct risk financial crime anti-money laun-dering and private banking I look to uncover control weaknesses and risks and I work with management to identify effective solutions and then report on the results

How did you become passionate about fighting fraud Early in my career I was following up on issues from a prior audit at a branch office I selected a small sample to verify that they were in compliance with the agreed actions While reviewing the documents requested it became apparent that one of the officers had approved some inappropriate transactions that bene-fited him and a client The investigation eventually resulted in the termination of the employee Shortly after this investigation I left that company but the experience piqued my interest

What is one of the biggest lessons yoursquove learned since be-coming a Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) Irsquove only been a CFE for about a year now but Irsquom always sur-prised by the diverse backgrounds and positions of those who carry this credential Initially I thought that most CFEs would have an accounting or auditing background like me But Irsquove found that many CFEs are police officers FBI agents private investigators are in the military etc They each come from different back-grounds but use the core skills of the CFE credential to do their jobs Itrsquos also been very helpful for me to reach out to other CFEs from different disciplines that might have other perspectives on many of the issues we deal with

How do you stay current on the latest fraud schemes Since passing the CFE Exam last year Irsquove been reading everything I can on fraud including books and busi-ness publications A great help to me was the 26th Annual ACFE Global Fraud Conference in Baltimore Maryland The breadth of sessions and the number of topics were amazing I also had the opportunity to make connections with others who have been addressing these risks for years This has been a great resource to me as I try to expand my knowledge and understanding of this area

What do you think has contributed to your success The key is to be open to new ideas and challenges Over the past two years Irsquove studied for and passed both the exams to become a CFE and a certified money laundering expert Preparing for these exams instilled discipline and allowed me to increase the depth of my knowledge Itrsquos provided me with the confidence and industry recognition to take on roles of increasing complexity and responsi-bilities

Are there any trends (eg demographic social legal) that concern you The greatest concern I see is of the growing risk of cybercrime This isnrsquot only a risk to individuals and businesses but also to national security At the ACFE Global Fraud Conference key-note speaker Brian Krebs discussed the growing menace of state-sponsored cybercrime that could be used for espionage and to threaten our financial systems and key infrastructure This risk is going to be a big challenge in the years ahead

What do you consider to be the most important values a CFE must embody A CFE must have and project integrity honesty and a desire for the truth When we start a fraud examination we run the risk of entering with preconceived notions of what happened or whorsquos at fault Therefore as a CFE we must always have the integrity to follow the evidence to discover the truth whatever that truth turns out to be
