Benford's Law - The Fraud Detective  

Benford's Law is a mathematical theory that was conceived in 1938. For 50 years, Benford's Law was a curiosity limited to mathematicians-but now, it aids numerous anti-fraud professionals in solving embezzlement, insurance claims, and money laundering cases. This course illustrates how this theory could help you on your next fraud case.

This course meets the requirements to qualify for the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (CFE) fraud category, but it does not meet the requirements for California Fraud credit because it is not specifically focused on the prevention, detection, and/or reporting of fraud affecting financial statements.

This basic level course is most beneficial to professionals new to this topic who may be at the staff or entry level in organization but also for a seasoned professional with limited exposure to this topic.
