. About the Author A veteran middle manager with a Fortune 500 company for twenty years, Employee X knows how people cheat on their expense reports
I knew no one would buy a book on how to catch cheaters, thus the title of the book. Numerous magazine, newspaper, and television stories have spot-lighted this book. The title suggests it is tempting people to cheat on their expense reports, however the best way to catch a cheater is to know how they cheat. This book can be used for good or evil. Key software makers, travel websites, and payroll processing companies have used my book to improve their detection systems.. The choice is yours, however it is really meant as a tool for people who approve expense reports to catch bogus claims

I bought the book thinking I would get insight in my day to day job ( I'm a Fraud Manager at a Bank ) all it did was provide some amusing reading for a day . I would recommend the kindle version ( cheaper ) if you really feel curious .. Lacks substance Bret L Over 90% of these techniques will not work today, unless your company still uses the pencil and paper accounting methods. With the automation used in travel bookings, these ideas are silly.For example, is it realistic to buy a cheap airline ticket, and then buy the same ticket at an inflated fare just before departure? Her theory states that you should fly on the discounted airfare, and submit the expensive one on your expense report (and then get a refund). Perhaps her tips could be useful for a mom-and-pop operation.Or similarly, after
