Our Verdict
Although the course focuses on basic concepts rather than forensic accounting or fraud investigations, it still offers valuable insights into various types of fraud schemes like skimming, lapping, and cash larceny. The course strengths lie in its prevention and detection techniques. However, there is room for improvement with more engaging video content, real-life examples, and updated course materials to better meet student expectations. It may cater well to beginners looking to understand the fundamentals of various fraud schemes but might leave advanced learners craving a deeper dive into these topics.

Potential Drawbacks

- Lack of real-life examples and video content featuring an actual speaker
- Quizzes are considered too basic and could benefit from being more complex and used in case studies
- Some students find the course to be outdated and overly simplistic
- Some concern about the missing courses 2, 3, and 4 as advertised, and the credibility of course creator's positive reviews
