Fraud Investigation
A fraud investigation may be performed by SUNY System Administration, the Research Foundation, or campus
administrators. The conduct of each investigation is determined by the fraud policy of the agency doing the
review.
When the reported fraudulent act is made at the campus, an initial review of any allegation is performed
under the direction of the Controller and the Director of Internal Audit and in consultation with the Vice
President for University Services, to determine if a formal investigation is necessary. If a formal inquiry
is deemed necessary, a fraud investigation team is formed. This team is chaired by the Associate Vice
President and Controller and is comprised of staff from Human Resource Services, Internal Audit, University
Police, and SUNY Legal Counsel. The investigation is conducted in accordance with the Campus fraud policy.

Fraud Presentation
The Internal Audit Department and the Department of Public Safety
teamed to develop a PowerPoint
slide show and discussion period on fraud which is available
for presentation at campus units. This presentation takes approximately
30-45 minutes and discusses the meaning of fraud, common myths
of fraud, who commits fraud, and how management encourages fraud.
There is also a question and answer period. Managers and staff
are encouraged to view this presentation. If you would like
to see this slide show, please contact Gary Walters at 645-5000,
ext. 1241 or Dan Jay at 645-2228. (top)
