CORPORATE FRAUD
POLICY 2019-2021
With occupational fraud incidence on the rise in both number and frequency, it is imperative for Wildwood
Property Management to implement fraud policies. The financial loss, reputation being damaged, and the loss of
our customers trust is very serious and could lead to the failure of the company. The Fraud Policy is beneficial to
the company and will assist us in detecting and preventing fraud. Not implementing a Fraud Policy is more costly
to Wildwood Property Management than having one in place.
Wildwood Property Management must have fraud awareness and prevention policies in place to help in averting
losses that come with the commission of a fraudulent activity. Our stakeholders (homeowners, investors, and
shareholders rely on us to manage their properties. We must ensure compliance from all employees, including
management, board of directors and others that do business with us as vendors and suppliers.
As Frank L. Varanavage, CPA and Certified Fraud Examiner said “Fraud can blindside a company and it can come
from any direction. When it comes to fraud, there is no prejudice. It can be large or small, external or internal. It
can come from a high-level executive or from low level staff. It can be a brand-new hire, or an employee who has
worked for the company for several years.”
