Dr. Kelly Richmond Pope joins host Mike Potenza to unpack fraud’s ecosystem: the fraud triangle of pressure, opportunity, and rationalization, and the three perpetrator types—intentional, accidental, and righteous. They explore high-profile cases like Bernie Madoff and Enron, to the chilling Robert Courtney chemotherapy dilution scheme, along with everyday scams like receipt “shop listing.” Pope frames victims as innocent bystanders and organizational targets, warning how trust, weak controls, and new tech like deepfakes fuel risk. Join us for practical takeaways on how you can watch for red flags and strengthen controls to prevent fraud.
