I blogged about Nigerian letter scams about 2 years ago. At the time, I wondered whether it was worth posting such a story as I thought everyone, or at least most Canadians, were already aware of these types of scams [...]

I often think about what it would be like to leave the house with one card; the simplicity that one card would seem to offer. It could hold all my personal data in secure format, I could travel with it, use it to prove I was licensed to [...]

Fraudtsers wait for this.
Like ambulance chasers, fraudsters aiming to profit from charitable donations or from pushing viruses onto other computers wait for epidemics like the recent swine flu outbreak.
How do they do it?
Aside from feeding off of the panic that these situations bring about, cyberopportunists react [...]
In our first guest article, a fellow blogger, Courtney Phillips addresses the current fraud trends in the US market.
In a report released in late February by Unisys Corporation, figures showed that a whopping 75% of Americans believe that the current financial crisis has increased the likelihood of experiencing fraud and [...]

It's that time of year again!
The FraudBlog.net team is once again in training for our ride up the DVP on Sunday, June 7th, 2009. Yet again we will cover ourselves in stretchy manmade fabrics and pedal for 50km as a group.
If you wish to join us, contribute to [...]
If you recall a few years back, the talk surrounding RFID tags cenetered around their implimentation in everyday life and fears regarding government surveillance.
This technology, dating back decades, has been used for everything from espionage, to human tracking to ensuring shelves are stocked at the supermarket. The creators [...]

It was funny. It really showed me the power of gradualism. It’s hard to get people to do something bad all in one big jump, but if you can cut it up into small enough pieces, you can get people to do almost anything.--Matt Knox
If you have little [...]
Dubbed "India's Enron", the scandal involving India's fourth largest computer software company, Satyam, has exposed overstated revenues and fictitious assets of close to $1 billion USD causing liquidity issues for this Hyderabad company.
What does all this mean for those of us in North America?
While this situation may [...]
So you've probably heard the big news... Bernard Madoff, a longtsnaindg leader in the US financial services industry and influencial figure as former chairman of the NASDAQ was charged today with a record breaking $50 billion fraud.
Madoff has taken responsibility for what amounted to "basically, a giant [...]
The age old dilemma... To side with the ninjas? Or with the pirates?
Personally, there's something about the ninja that I find appealing. But after having grown up on the water, there's a certain nostalgic element in pirates that interests me.
Captain Hook types need not apply
No longer limited to [...]
So Cyber Monday came and went with not much of a stir. As the days of December pass and transactions on the worldwide web increase to some of the highest levels of the year, internet fraud and identity theft become common place.
Think you're immune to [...]
So how much can one year throw at you? A lot!
I've been off line again--that's twice in one year. This time for an appendix-sized surprise! So much for predictability :)
But now I'm back in business and thought I would share an article that came out but a day and a [...]
For months now (even years), both American and Canadian authorities have been predicting a sharp increase in reported mortgage fraud cases. Up until 3 years ago, few institutions kept track of statistics on this type of fraudulent activity.
For this reason, we [...]
Just when you think you have a grasp on the gaps involved in online fraud prevention, a new trend takes over the cyber world and throws everyone's confidence for a loop.
The average user’s knowledge of current scams and pitfalls can quickly become outdated.
To combat this lack of [...]
This post is a bit of a catch up after a few hectic weeks so I thought I would provide 3 interesting (though not necessarily related) events that have transpired during this time.
In the white-collar world, becoming a whistle-blower is something many hide from but have ultimately taken the decision to do the right thing and stand up for what they feel is right. We often hear of whistle-blowers in the news and while their efforts are considered heroic by [...]
Further to Friday's post on the Calgary debit card fraud scam, controversy has arisen over Ehud Tenenbaum's identity and whether he is the same Tenenbaum (a.k.a. The Analyzer) involved in the Pentagon computer hackings a decade ago.
The disgruntled workers of Office Space did it by rounding bank transactions to the nearest decimal in their favour, imitating the salami slicing scheme involved in Superman III.
Several months ago I had come across an [...]
We take pride in making fun of those less fortunate in the IQ Department.
For instance, the story of a bank robber presenting ID to the teller prior to her advancing any funds has been passed around since long before my time in the financial industry and [...]
Well, the last post was a little more than a week ago! So, I'll let you in on a little secret...
Humans weren't meant to hit their heads.
Yup, that's it. Those are my words of wisdom :)
After suffering the most severe form of concussion and requiring some two months to get [...]
Hi Guys,
It absolutely sucks that I haven't been able to post the last few weeks. Due to a surprise personal situation, I have had to put the blog on hold.... Something I absolutely hate doing because there are so many blogs out there that are neglected, outdated [...]
Where do the highest risk areas of fraud lie?
This question is one of the hardest to answer because so much of fraud investigation relies on catching a trend in its infancy. That is, rarely are we able to predict the trends. Instead, we rely on [...]
Employee fraud is such a touchy subject.
For one, it sucks to think that the people you spend most of your waking hours with would want to rip off the same cause you are both working towards.
And secondly, the thought of acknowledging that a person you hired is committing a fraud [...]
A big thank you to the spambots for the daily e-mails and comments that bombard my site. While the affection and constant attention of a robot is well, most rewarding, I would prefer to hear what the real world has to say.
For this reason, FraudBlog.net will now accept [...]
Well do you?
While we all sit here and sigh at the people who get ropped into Nigerian 419 scams and money mule scams, what about the bill you get for the [...]
A short post and two short articles to get a single point across:
All forms of fraud are interconnected.
It is hard to get away with something and cover up one's tracks without resorting to various other illegal means.
This can make various forms of fraud hard to investigate, [...]
Concerns have been raised over Skype's ability (or lack thereof) to comply with wiretap requsts. While other online IM networks such as Yahoo and Microsoft are centralised (allowing them to comply with wiretap requests), Skype's peer-to-peer network and encryption not only prevent Skype from viewing the transmitted information [...]
The Spinnnin' Sleuths found their way up and down the DVP this past Sunday in the 50km Ride for Heart. A little over 2 hours, 1 chain replacement, 1 tire repair, and 5 sore (but well-Spendexed) backsides later, the group crossed the finish line ready for some grub and cushioned [...]
So I've been postponing the inevitable due to media saturation... However, Google Analytics tells me that you folks are still confused about how a mortgage fraud takes place. Where better to start than a quick overview of the ongoing fraud in the subprime loan crisis in the U.S. and how [...]
A conversation with a close friend last night and subsequently stumbling upon this CBC article of June 2, have reminded me of revelations I have had in my travels around the globe regarding perceptions of what is considered fraudulent.
As a young [...]
My friend 'Le Freak' often asks me to explain how money laundering has had an effect on various aspects of my job. Generally, the conversation turns to stories of criminals who have experienced a few too many "1D-Ten-T" errors and the goof ups that lead to [...]
Ernst and Young released survey results recently indicating that Canada was leading the global fight against fraud.
While the article below discusses the survey results in more detail, several points are of interest:
Feel like joining the FraudBlog.net team as we pedal 50km along the DVP on June 1, 2008?
Perhaps you'd just like to laugh at us in our funny shorts?
Better yet, maybe you'd like to donate towards the team?
Whatever the case, stay tuned for [...]
If you think I'm about to go on some bra-burning rant that women are superior because of the title of this article, you'll surely be let down by the following post.
Ever the egalitarian and proficient door-opener, I'd like to think both sexes have something to learn from each [...]
My day job for the last few years has had me investigating all things "real estate". Because of that, my interest has touched on mortgage fraud, grow operations and some aspects of money laundering.
No, I've never taken part in these operations, but I have been tasked with [...]
For those of us dealing with Canadian Financial Institutions, we are likely well aware of the impending date, June 23, 2008. On this day, FINTRAC's regulations for reporting entities will change in an effort "to keep up with new money laundering and terrorist financing trends [...]
