Identify Fraud Perpetrators It is widely perceived that people commit crimes because that is what they want to do. Criminal behavior is a matter of choices. Today, there are many excuses cloaked as reasons for criminal behavior. The misguided nature of these assertions has a serious impact upon crime control strategies. The classical approach to crime control strategies deals with direct intervention tactics. Law enforcement, within this rubric, takes an aggressive posture toward criminal acts. The delayed tactics of a reactionary position is relegated to the illusion of rehabilitation. In the classical view, deviance and crime are addressed in a proactive manner. This strives to be consistent with both legal and social aspects of constraint. Deviant behavior in the form of criminal activity must necessitate a punitive approach to behavior. Such an approach must come with speed, precision and certainty. For control sanctions to work, the systems of justice must work decisively. The attendant criminal justice systems must be capable of deploying the necessary resources. From an historic perspective, the classical school of criminology is often overlooked as a viable crime prevention strategy. All available scientific, forensic and technical resources should press full force behind a more classical approach to criminology. This training looks at psychology and investigation which draws upon a range of psychological principles relevant to the conduct of criminal or civil investigations. The issues covered by the area relate to the management, investigation and the ensuing legal outcomes of criminal cases. The issues examined reveal that what fuels the investigative process is the information upon which sequences of decisions are made.A basic example would be matching digital evidence found at an employee’s notebook with a suspected perpetrator. However many cases are not this simple, for example an employee’s notebook or PC may be compromise by an over zealous auditor who may insist on making a copy of the hard disk before passing it along to the investigator. These inferences will either result in a decision to seek further information or to select from a possible range of actions including the arrest and charging of a potential suspect.

Led By: Tommy Seah (Principal Trainer)

& Stanley Chia

This training looks at some psychological processes that may be of

(Trainer-In-Attendance) relevance - assessing the accounts of the crime, making decisions

upon this information and developing an understanding of the actual actions of the offenders themselves.
