Fraud Theory and Prevention
Apply the fraud triangle theory to a relatively innocuous instance of white-collar crime (e.g., plagiarism, cheating on a test, or underreporting income on your taxes). Explain the motive, opportunity, and likely rationalization.
Analyze the fraud theories discussed in Chapter 2 of Biegelman and Bartow, and determine which best addresses a recent incident of fraud of which you are aware (whether local, regional, or national). Provide specific examples to support your response.
