Check fraud is overwhelming investigators nationwide. Learn to work, document, and prosecute these cases from first report to affidavit.
Check fraud is the number one fraud overwhelming law enforcement investigators right now. Cases are being pushed to the next jurisdiction, passed between agencies, and quietly shelved- not because investigators lack the work ethic, but because they were never given a clear framework for working them.
Check Fraud Investigations for Law Enforcement is a focused, 4-hour live online course that gives sworn investigators a step-by-step process for identifying, working, documenting, and prosecuting check fraud cases. From the initial report through bank subpoenas, surveillance, and a prosecution-ready probable cause affidavit, every stage of the investigation is covered with practical, immediately applicable instruction.
What You Will Learn
- Every major check fraud scheme active today: washing, counterfeiting, altering, mail theft and interception, card cracking, embezzlement, impersonation scams, and mobile deposit fraud
- How to read and analyze a check- routing numbers, BOFD, ACH transactions, cashier's checks, and mobile deposits — and what each element tells your investigation
- How to navigate jurisdictional issues that cause cases to stall or get passed between agencies
- How to build bank subpoenas and search warrant packages that get the right records: deposits, teller logs, teller affidavits, surveillance, and BOFD documentation
- How to use investigative resources including FinCEN, TeleCheck, deconfliction tools, and U.S. Postal Service investigations
- How to document check fraud in a case report and probable cause affidavit using language that survives prosecutorial review
- A case checklist that keeps investigations on track from first contact to final disposition
