"If you don't think that some employees have figured out
ingenious ways to steal from businesses, read this book. The
real-life examples will change your mind." --Joseph T. Wells,
CFE, CPA, founder and Chairman, Association of Certified Fraud
Examiners

"An easy-to-read, but comprehensive step-by-step approach that
covers every potential area for employee fraud and embezzlement.
Great checklists at the end of each chapter show what steps to put
into place for controls and protection. Includes real-life examples
that really 'bring the story home.' " --Jean L. Conover, CPA,
past CEO/CFO, Jefferson Radiology PC

"This book is a must-read for seasoned entrepreneurs as well as
those considering entering their own business venture. While
developed for small business, the risk detection and prevention
methodologies presented by Mr. Pedneault are universal to all
businesses. The concise checklists provide ready guidance for
establishing a complete system of controls."--Denise H.

advice for internal controls and illustrates the risks with
real-life examples."--Leonard W. Vona, President, Fraud
