Most of these operations occur in the field of communication, and the most used in the fraudulent manipulation is middle management. "The most common factor in the crime is a desire to avenge the employer because of poor income or dismissal", noted at the meeting.

"The fight against fraud is one of the main objectives of PwC. There are two types of fraud, the Manager of PwC Audit Services Maksim Khayrullin said. - This is a misreporting, arising in the process of unfair financial reporting and misreporting resulting from asset misappropriation".
