Episode 6: The Fraud Epidemic
Fraud is an age-old crime. However, it is one that has drastically evolved in recent years. Far from the small-scale individual acts or larger corporate offences of the past, organised volume fraud has now reached epidemic levels, posing a growing threat to the UK’s national security and financial stability.
CFCS’s Kathryn Westmore is joined by Jonathan Holmes, Partner in PwC’s Digital and Forensic Services Investigations Team, to explore how well we’ve adapted and how we can best stay ahead of the fraud threat.
