Our Credo from fraud aid :
We are committed to fighting fraud on every front.
We do not tolerate conditions in which
the defrauder can thrive, free of the fear of justice.
We are dedicated to bending mind and spirit toward making the business of
fraud difficult in the extreme, if not outright impossible.
The civil rights, welfare, and well-being of the fraud victim
become our primary concern once contacted by that victim.
We do not criticize. We do not pass judgment.
We do not do or say anything to compromise
the fraud victim’s dignity and feeling of self-worth.
We give each fraud victim our undivided, intelligent, serious, and unflinching attention
until such time as that man or woman can return to the community
a stronger and wiser person who no longer needs to rely on us.
We do not turn anyone away: If we cannot provide the needed solution,
to the very best of our ability we find another source that can
We stand between the fraud victim and the systems,
be they legitimate or fraudulent,
that seek to overwhelm that victim.
We provide assistance to those who stand up for the victim by sharing
our knowledge and expertise as they pertain to their prevailing challenges.
We educate.
We actively seek out any and all information related to fraud
and present our findings in an easy to understand manner
such that anyone in the world,
regardless of their culture and circumstances,
can apply what they learn to their personal situation.
We encourage members of the world community, both public and private,
to avail themselves of our gathered knowledge
toward the application of efficient fraud prevention practices
that ensure the safety of their personal funds and possessions,
and that of those for whom they are responsible
We bear in mind, at all times, that those who come to us to learn,
regardless of their reason for doing so,
will impart to others the knowledge they gain from us and it is therefore
our distinct responsibility to ensure that
each fact we present is supported by
meticulous, judicious, and independently verifiable research.
We offer the full scope of our cooperation to prosecution and defense attorneys,
investigative agencies, public and private,
at every level in the course of an investigation,
in the furtherance of the goals of justice.
