Interludes: Calvin and Hobbes

Still busy, so once again Calvin and Hobbes will do the work for me.  Calvin's attitude towards money in this comic strip is unfortunately the same attitude many fraudsters have.

Secrets of Con Artists 5

Social media - everyone uses it (or seems like almost everyone).  Including me.  Facebook, Twitter, what have you.

     Social media is great but, like everything else, it has its dark side, other side of the coin, negative aspects, once again what have you. 

     In terms of what we are discussing, FB and other social media allows for the general public to find out information about yourself without much effort.  For example:

1.  Your birthday.  If you advertise your birthday, then of course it becomes available knowledge for anyone caring to look.  Don't forget, this can also include your year of birth.

2.  Your basic background information - where you graduated (and when) high school and college, the jobs you have had, how long you stayed at such jobs. 

3.  Your relationship history.

      It's easy to see just how this information can be used against you.  Remember to use your settings wisely and keep the information to those whom you want to have the information

Secrets of Con Artists 4

We were discussing the last post about the psychopathic/sociopathic tendencies of con artists.  Readers of this blog know that this is not the first time we discussed this.

     What makes it interesting, however, under the banner of "secrets of con artists" is that many psychiatrists and forensic analysts are just now beginning to understand just how psychopathic and sociopathic con artists can be.  It was never a big secret that fraudsters don't care about other people.  However, unlike burglars, robbers and other criminals who use force to get individuals (and corporations I suppose) to turn over money, fraudsters actually seem to enjoy the thrill of the con itself.  It is not so much the money or other financial incentives that attract fraudsters to this line of work (although, of course, it is a necessary element), but rather the creation of the plan and the thrill of getting the victim to believe in the fraudster.  It is just as critical for the fraudster to get some kind of psychological satisfaction or "high" if you will from the target.

     Think about this for a minute.  The average street mugger could care less what his victim thinks of him (and probably knows that his victim is scared of him because he has a gun or whatever).  A fraudster, however, gets just as much enjoyment out of the actual criminal act itself as getting the reward.

     This is what makes fraudsters unique in the criminal world.  It is not so much the reward, but how the reward is obtained.  This has been romanticized in movies like "The Sting" and other stories and I myself have confessed to being somewhat in amazement as to how fraudsters operate.  Most of us would like to have that kind of self-confidence that fraudsters emulate, almost unconsciously.  But the knowledge that a fraudster has this ability (or develops it) and uses it to screw people and gets a high from it really is what makes this type of criminal unique.

Secrets of Con Artists 3

We have discussed before on this blog the relationship between con artists and sociopaths/psychopaths.  To take advantage of someone, which is the heart and soul of a con operation, means that the person who is doing the con really does not care about the feelings of the target victim.  The entire point of a con operation is to gain the trust of that target and then exploit that trust for the immoral purposes of the con.

     It should not come as a surprise, therefore, that victims of fraud or con games were more than 50% likely to have recently experienced negative life events such as the death of a loved one, illness or a divorce.  Depression tends to run higher in the elderly and therefore it should also not be a surprise that the elderly are more likely to be the victim of fraud.

     Con artists may be sociopaths, but they are smart sociopaths.  They know which people to target.  It should not come as a surprise, therefore, that studies on fraudsters have demonstrated that they tend to look for (and often find) people that are going through a crisis point in their lives.  Such individuals often find that they are in need of a friend, and all too-often a con artist is willing to be that friend.

Interludes - Welcome Tunisian Readers

Like any mildly egotistical blogger, I always check the stats of people visiting my blog.  The stats also provide me information as to the people from different countries who are visiting.  To my great surprise and delight, I found that recently a number of bloggers from Tunisia have begun to tune in.

     First, - welcome!  I am always happy to welcome international visitors. 

     Second - a special welcome to those visitors from Tunisia.  Tunisia is an interesting country - a North African country which for years was under the control of a corrupt and autocratic government.  Tunisia was the country that started the "Arab Spring," when a vendor set himself on fire to protest policies.

     Tunisia represents an example of what corruption can do to a country. Organizations such as Transparency International fight against corruption and work tirelessly to expose it.  Corruption and crony capitalism can not only disrupt commerce, it can cause misery for millions of people in a country and, further, can literally retard a country's intellectual and economic growth.  It can prevent a country from reaching its potential and, even worse, can actually lower a country's GDP and force millions into poverty.
 
     The Tunisian revolution occurred, in part, because of the intense corruption in the country.  Here is to a better future.

Secrets of Con Artists 2

One of the biggest "secrets" of con artists that is actually one of the worst kept secrets in the world is that con artists have easy access to your information.  Very easy access.

     I'm not talking about items such as social security numbers or birthdays or addresses.  Yes, these can be found but you have to know where to look.  I'm talking about information such as your favorite food, where you work, your educational background, your likes and dislikes, information regarding your relatives, information regarding your pets.  Information that you think is private and is for you only.
 
      Con artists find this type of information to be a gold mine because it helps them build a personality matrix of you.  Remember - and we cannot say this enough - con games are confidence games.  The con man must have you develop confidence in him.  You must believe him otherwise there is no way the con man can ever get you to trust him. 

    Obviously the more a con man knows about you, the more he can get you to trust him.

Secrets of Con Artists 1

We will spend the next few posts discussing some of the "secrets" of con artists.  By secrets, I do not mean some hidden knowledge known only to con artists (as we have seen several times over the course of many discussions, the only real "secret" to being a con artist is having a sociopathic personality and extreme self-confidence) but rather some aspects of being a con artist that are not well known.

     Con artists, as we have seen time and time again, play off the insecurities of their victims which is contrasted by the extreme self-confidence of the con artist.  Remember - the main element to every con artist is that they need to gain the confidence of their victim.  Confidence games.

Dangers of Being a Corporate Whistleblower 8

We have given an overview of what can befall a whistleblower.  You can file this under "life is not fair" (if you haven't figured that out already) but what is obvious is that doing the right thing does not always make a person a hero.  In fact, the consequences from being a whistleblower can not only be life-changing, they can be hazardous.

     The only advice I can give here is the obvious - get competent legal counsel before attempting to be a whistleblower.  A competent white collar criminal attorney can guide you through the process.

      Yeah, I suppose I am doing some in-house advertising with this post, but this is not done out of a way to get my name out there (OK, who am I kidding, of course it is), but because I have literally seen dozens of people attempt to do the right thing without counsel and find themselves in trouble up to their neck.  I cannot stress this enough - if you work for a corporation, and you are attempting to be a whistleblower against this corporation because you discovered fraud, in some way you probably helped the corporation commit the fraud in the first place, even unknowingly.  This means that you are part of a conspiracy.

      Blowing the whistle on corporate fraud is not the same thing as stopping a robbery in progress (and I don't advise doing THAT unless you have significant REAL martial arts experience and/or military or police experience and are armed yourself).  Corporate fraud does not take place in a vacuum - there are always a group of people involved, once again either intentionally or unintentionally.  Thinking you can be a hero and expose corporate fraud without consequences or repercussions is a one-way ticket to a disaster.

     I don't want to discourage anyone from doing the right thing.  But, I want potential whistleblowers to do the right thing in the right way.

Dangers of Being a Corporate Whistleblower 7

Getting back to our discussion.....

     One of the strange things many whistleblowers find is that after the good deed, the whistleblower may end up being unemployable.

     Think about it - a person does the right thing, informs the Government (or whatever agency) about the malfeasance occurring and, in the end, the person finds he cannot get a job.

      There are a couple of reasons this could happen.  Reason number one is simple - most businesses have something to hide.  The people employed at such businesses either go along with this or simply choose to look the other way.  Now, a person with a reputation for getting involved and not "going along with it" wants a job at this company.  Do you think they will fit in?  Do you really think the boss wants someone on his team who he knows will not be a "team player?"

      In addition to this, once the whistleblowing begins, it is not over until it is over.  The whistleblower's actions are only the beginning of a long, sometimes very long, legal process.  The whistleblower may end up being the star witness in this whole thing, whether it is a criminal action, a civil action or both.  How does it look when the person is applying for jobs but has to put down that there may be times when the person is absent for days, weeks, or even months at a time?  Potential employers are not really excited about this. 

     And, if that were not enough, remember what we talked about the previous few posts - the company that is at the center of attention will often fight back and this includes fighting back by smearing the whistleblower's reputation.  It is taken for granted that an employer will at least do a "google" check on the person's history.  When all of the fun stuff about the whistleblower pops up even after a basic internet search, it is bound to raise some questions.

Dangers of Being a Corporate Whistleblower 6

One of the most unusual aspects of being a corporate whistleblower that people do not understand or appreciate is that not only the corporation will fight back, the corporation may also do whatever it takes (whether legally or illegally) to besmirch the whistleblower's reputation.

     Don't forget that when a corporation (or any business) is accused of shady dealings and there is a basis in fact for these shady dealings, the corporation has to do what it takes to survive.  Unfortunately, as immature as it sounds, sometimes the most effective course of action is to smear the whistleblower's reputation.  This can work to a corporation's advantage for at least two reasons:

1.  It deflects (or at least attempts to deflect) the attention away from the corporation

2.  By throwing mud at the whistleblower, there is always a chance that something will stick.  For example, if the smear campaign includes the accusation that the whistleblower is divorced, has kids and is behind on child support payments, and it turns out that the whistleblower really is behind on his child support payments, it makes the whistleblower look bad.

      As I said, this is not applying legal arguments nor is it an attempt to apply even moral arguments.  These types of smear tactics are straight from a sixth grade schoolyard.  Unfortunately, this does not mean that it will not be tried.

Dangers of Being a Corporate Whistleblower 5

One of the issues about becoming a corporate whistleblower that many people find amazing is not only that the whistleblower can lose their job, they can actually find themselves under surveillance and harassment from their former employer.

     As you should have figured out by now, whistleblowers are not popular.  After a person points out that a company which employs people, pays people and gives employees benefits may actually be committing crimes, the reality sets in that said company may not exist for very much longer.  This means that people will be fired, the company may go out of business and nice benefits such as health insurance and life insurance may go out the window. 

     Yet another example of how people may not be grateful when a person does the right thing.

      But companies do not go down without a fight.  If these means that a threat to the company, even a threat which is trying to do the right thing, the company may fight back.  This may mean that the whistleblower finds himself the subject of surveillance and other discomforts as the company tries to find some "dirt" on the whistleblower.  After all, if the whistleblower can be discredited, then the damage may be contained.

      Yet another issue of which a corporate whistleblower should be aware.

Dangers of Being a Corporate Whistleblower 4

Continuing with our "strange as it may seem" theme, believe it or not (cliché away!), it is possible to be a whistleblower and still be prosecuted by Federal or State authorities for a crime.

      In the Federal world, this is called "conspiracy."  If you were part of a group of people that were advancing a criminal scheme and you knew or should have known that you were part of this scheme, you can be prosecuted for conspiracy which is a Federal offense and usually carries with it up to five years in Club Fed. 

      Let's review this again because it is so important: you can actually take your case to the Feds and tell them everything you know about a  criminal scheme that you just uncovered.  You can be the person that blows the lid of a multibillion fraud scheme.  However, if the Feds determine that you were advancing this scheme, you can still be prosecuted for conspiracy.

     Yes, it is true.  Yes, it has happened in the past.  Yes, it will happen in the future.

      I am going to repeat here something which we will hear a lot: if you are going to be a whistleblower, you need a competent attorney who knows how to handle these things before becoming a hero.

Dangers of Being a Corporate Whistleblower 3

One way a person might find himself in the position of being a corporate whistleblower is very simple - they are hired to do a job and then, when they do the job, they find that their employer does not want to hear about any kind of "illegal deal" or "illegal program" because it will kill profits (or at least lower profits) and so fires the worker.

      This is not that unusual.  As I state on my bio, in addition to being an attorney, I am a Certified Fraud Examiner ("CFE").  CFE's, as the name suggests, are trained in investigative techniques to uncover and stop fraud from occurring.  Seems pretty straightforward.  CFE's are retained by companies to find fraud or malfeasance in the company.  Once again, this would seem apparent and self-obvious.  However, I have read stories about CFE's hired by a company as a full-time employee (as opposed to a CFE that is retained on a particular project) and then, when the CFE attempts to do his job and tell his employer that something is wrong, the CFE is fired (which, of course, begs the question: just what did the employer think the CFE was going to do?  Put his stamp of approval on a fraudulent scheme?)

     Strange world we live in, isn't it?

     What the company does not realize (or perhaps management in the company does realize but just does not care) is that the CFE (or other type of worker) can bring a wrongful termination suit against the employer.  When this occurs, the fraud or attempted fraud is then made known.  One way or another, therefore, the fraud gets exposed. 

    So, when a person is trying to do his job for which he was hired, he unwittingly finds himself the victim of his own prowess.
