  More than five years after the Bush administration brought in the world's toughest anti-fraud law, and Governments around the world followed suit, the latest data suggests that fraud is stronger than ever.

- Wrath of the math: Why did Karl Rove quit?
  Posted by VincebusEruptum from Scholarsandrogues.wordpress
  That's the question on everyone's lips since the porcine political player announced he would be stepping down at the end of August. Of course, the excuse that he wants to spend more time with his family is horse puckey and we all know it--so what's really going on?

- Burned up cooking the books

  Crime doesn't pay. Well, for some. Contrary to claims that managers lie, cheat, cook the books and get away with it, a new study shows that individual perpetrators suffer huge consequences. Not all, but a lot of them.

- Securities fraud scamsters

Easing up on fraud enforcement

One of the many tragedies of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina three years ago was the fact that insurance companies used the event to systematically deny claims, leaving victims further in desperate straits. That shouldn’t happen following any natural disaster, and even though the immediate storm effects did not cause as much damage as predicted, there are sure to be plenty of claims for flood damages throughout the Midwest and along Gustav’s path. If you or someone you know has been denied an insurance claim related to Gustav: that would be a site you should visit.
