John
Doe, a fraud examiner, has been hired by ABC Corporation to investigate a
shortage of cash, which management thinks is being caused by fraudulent
behavior. John Doe could spend his time and money pursuing witnesses to the
crime or collecting documents that would confirm fraudulent activities. As with
most fraud examiners, he chooses to collect supporting documents instead of
pursuing witnesses.
Explain why John and most
other fraud examiners prefer documents over witnesses; then describe elements
of good document care.

back of cancelled checks (A check leaves a paper trail)
Paragraph 3:

includes chain of custody and marking the evidence
