The case studies were very informative. Also, with Koss, the detail that shows the interrelated results, in terms of the criminal cases, administrative proceedings that resulted in financial penalties, and the volume of civil litigation between aggrieved parties shows how complicated the downstream impact of one of these situations can become. How dare Koss sue Amex! Some thanks for Amex tipping them off in the first place (I'd say sour grapes for having already taking a hit and looking for someone to get back at....)

One of the more interesting Illumeo fraud courses. 5 case studies illustrating brazen fraud of scale varying from $300,000 to $60 million. Text-only format was refreshing as it allows you to read at your own pace. It was interesting to follow up online to learn further details about these cases and more recent developments. Very nicely organized with the mechanics of the fraud and how they were discovered clearly laid out.

The course has some really good cases and really did a good job on explaining where things went wrong. The stories highlight some serious frauds committed and how things can go wrong when you place too must trust and not enough internal controls....

I was not familiar with any of these fraud cases, so it was interesting getting the details behind them. The design of this course (case studies) helps to bring home the lessons to be learned.

Excellent case studies with analysis describing the conditions in companies that permitted significant fraud to occur. Remember - Trust is not an internal control. This sums it up perfectly.

Quite an interesting course. Provided some insightful information about the consequences of the absence of the most simple internal control procedures.

Insight into many examples of employee theft and fraud. Thorough analysis of opportunities for theft and what could've been done to prevent fraud.

Joe prepared a good course highlighting real examples of fraud, and illustrating the internal controls that were absent or not working properly.

This was an interesting course. I loved the true-life examples. I wish the companies involved would have been more attentive to controls.
