As a fraud officer and have had a 10 year long succesful industry job and quite franckly have been good at it,I have dealt with true id fraud and have been very successful in this job.I enjoyed it and it is something that have kept me going for a very long long time.It does not matter what the consequences are but until recently I have lost my job due to only a handful of people that felt it was time to go.They cannot say that there was anything wrong with me but all it showed me that they are just vindictev.Now where am I now,in a dying trade seems like it,the one job saids you are over qualified the other saids he or she is intrigued The question is what do you think about fraud, are you intrigued or do you run for the hills.It is a very intoxicating James Bond sexy job but not a job that you can make a lot of money in.Selflisness has always played a very big part of this job,CEO/S does not seem to care about it,simply because they do not want there investors to know that someone else is infiltrating there business.It just does not make good business practice.They keep the fraud officer on the down low ,it is a job that no one is suppose to talk about.As a finacial institution,why you ask yourself,nobody would then invest or buy. So are you a fraud officer that is unrecognised get back to me.Are a fraud officer that seems not to go far,then change your profession.If is you,it is the person that is keeping you on the other side Chin up,want to know more,write to me

hi dionak! oh i feel bad for you! i mean that you lost you job...i really hate it when someone so passionate about his job loses it for one trivial reason or another. some people, who don't even care about their jobs and take them for granted get to stay. anyway, here in our country, fraud is not that rampant, as compared to the US. but i am very interested in those documentaries shown on TV about how people do things just to steal the identity of other people and how the innocent suffer from these illegal activities. i didn't even think it was possible at first. but since everything is high tech now, i guess a lot of things are possible. anyway, i hope it is not going to be a dying trade, because i believe that more and more are finding it easy to commit fraud. i hope you get to work again, especially in a similar trade. take care and God bless you!
