Fellow Fraud Examiner had no idea this existed! Love it!
I really like the content, so interesting and well explained. We always need to keep on top of the latest trends. Unfortunately the sound is terrible, the sound levels are very bad and hard to listen to with headphones. They need to book a studio.
I love listening to these podcasts as a CFE myself, but it does need some improvement in the audio quality. It’s not quite clear, it sounds as if the person was talking from afar.
Just found this podcast - and am happy to have so much listening to do.
I love the real life examples/case studies of seemingly upstanding people committing fraud. Gotta keep your radar up when you’re running a business.
Tune into Fraud Talk not only for practical strategies to prevent and fight fraud, but for incredibly interesting conversations and case studies. Sarah is a fantastic host who leads really engaging interviews with her expert guests! Highly recommend listening and subscribing. 💯
