Imagine finding out that a caregiver for your parents stole $1 million. What would you do? How would you feel? This is an interview with "Lena" who found out that her mother had been the victim of elder financial fraud. The caregiver stole and was eventually sentenced but the story is so much more. From being disappointed in both the criminal justice system and the financial system Lena tells you how it can happen to anyone. This is an incredibly sad story but it also helps you understand and protect your family. A huge thank you to Lena for sharing her story.
Mary Shirley, co-host of Great Women in Compliance, is this week's guest. I was lucky enough (through networking) to be a guest on her podcast and she did me a favor by being a guest here on Great Women in Fraud. Mary's origin story started in New Zealand and has taken her all over the globe doing investigations and compliance. She is also the co-author with Lisa Fine of Sending the Elevator Back Down. Mary is inspirational in her career and where it has taken her. Even if you aren't considering a career in compliance you will take away so many helpful career tips from Mary.
Next Generation Fraud Fighter Yelesina Hernandez. Yelesina is the perfect guest to highlight her career, her drive, her inspiration and her passion for the anti-fraud field. I met “Sina” several years ago when I spoke at the ACFE Houston Fraud Conference. She was sitting in the front row and came up to introduce herself.
She is a winner of the ACFE Ritchie Jennings Scholarship.
Sina is the Alumni Relations Director for the HBSA Bauer. She also is the President of the ACFE University of Houston Student Chapter.
What is amazing about her is the attention to detail and hard work combined with intellectual curiosity. If you want someone to inspire you while starting out your career in anti-fraud you will want to listen to this episode. I can’t wait to see where her career takes her because the possibilities are limitless. It is an honor to see such a strong woman working against so many obstacles while being able to do so much for her community.
Leah Wietholter of the Investigation Game is this week's guest. She recently designed the Case of the Cash Flow Fiasco which debuted at CyberCraft Summit. I played the game and it is really fun. From initially wanting to be an FBI agent to the now owner of Workman Forensics Leah is a Great Women in Fraud leader. She is known for her data sleuthing skills. While she has been doing investigations for 15 years I still consider her an up and comer.
