Fraud Awareness Week Casts Spotlight on White Collar Crime

DARTON GROUP Joins Ranks of Supporters for the November 6-12 Awareness Movement

DARTON GROUP (DARTON), a specialized financial consulting and staffing company, announced that it will be participating in International Fraud Awareness Week, November 6-12, 2011 as an Official Supporter to promote anti-fraud awareness and education. Fraud Awareness Week comes during a time when organizations around the world lose an estimated five percent of their annual revenues to fraud, according to a study conducted by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE).

DARTON joins hundreds of organizations who have partnered with the ACFE, the world's largest anti-fraud organization and premier provider of anti-fraud training and education, in a commitment to proactively fight fraud and help safeguard business and investments from this growing problem.

"Fraud schemes are extremely costly and continue for months or even years before they are detected," said Bryan Carey, Managing Director of DARTON. "Tips are essential to detecting fraud and this fact underscores the need for promoting awareness to foster an informed workforce," Carey said.

This marks the third consecutive year that DARTON has partnered with the ACFE as an Official Supporter and participant in Fraud Awareness Week. "During Fraud Week, DARTON will once again promote anti-fraud awareness and education across our popular social media platform that includes LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and our corporate blog," Carey said.
