I Won't Be A Victim, Will I?
Yes, you will become a victim now or in a short while Start Ups, Small and Midsized businesses if you do not take measures to prevent it. The article link below was written for you. Fraud is not going away and you are extremely vulnerable..... the low hanging fruit and the perpetrators know it. If you recall, our grandparents always told us to leave the porch light on at night because they believed it kept the thieves away. That was their prevention strategy and I can attest that it worked for my grandmother and the house hold. Our next door neighbors were always robbed because their porch light stayed off. The family believed that keeping their porch lights off saved them money. However, it cost them a lot of broken windows and door repairs, not including the items stolen that had to be replaced. Same thought process applies here. Implement internal controls, it will deter and prevent the fraudsters from making any attempts. Criminals do not like to work hard for anything, therefore if they know you have done everything you can to stop them, they move on to the next vulnerable company.
FRAUD IS A VIOLENT CRIME - PREVENT IT!!!!!!
