March 8, 2010; 11:30 am - 1:00 pm ET
The focus of this session is on dishonest vendors, customers and OFAC schemes with unique case studies. Learn about billing schemes, bid-rigging, customer refund frauds and other external AP fraud risks and how to prevent them.

Session Two: Internal AP Fraud Prevention (Registration for this session has closed)
April 12, 2010; 11:30 am - 1:00 pm ET
Learn how dishonest employees pull off costly billing, payroll, T&E and vendor master file schemes...how these frauds are concealed and how to catch the perpetrators before losses pile up.

Session Three: Fraud in Procure-to-Pay (Registration for this session has closed)
June 7, 2010; 11:30 am - 1:00 pm ET
Understand the common and not-so-common billing, conflict-of-interest and disbursement schemes involved in the procurement, receiving and payment components of the P2P cycle. Find out how your AP team can successfully serve as the front line against these frauds and how other departments can help.

Session Four: Fraud in Shared Services (Registration for this session has closed)
August 9, 2010; 11:30 am - 1:00 pm ET
Shared Services combines one or more "back office" functions and services often from geographically disparate areas into a separate organization - the Shared Service Center or SSC. Because the SSC usually encompasses accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, general ledger and other key financial functions, the risks of fraud are potentially extreme. This webinar will give you proven methods to minimize those risks.

Session Five: Management Overrides within the AP Process
October 11, 2010; 11:30 am - 1:00 pm ET
Senior management can use AP to "cook the books" or to perpetrate an array of payables embezzlement schemes against your organizations. Learn how these crimes are perpetrated and how implementing effective internal controls substantially reduces the risks of these potentially costly crimes.
