Believe it or not, a person can make money from fraud and identity theft without arousing the attention of the police. Nationally and internationally, the fraud situation has spawned an entire industry.
Special fraud investigators are used by companies to track down customers who misrepresent themselves. Ignoring the problem can prove very expensive for businesses, so there is a demand for fraud specialists. Additionally, individuals having personal problems with identity theft or fraud can hire private investigators that have experience dealing with fraud related crimes.
How does a person crack into that side of the fraud business? Well, a number of colleges and universities offer degree programs in fraud investigation. Having a fraud degree on a resume will likely give a person an edge over other job candidates. Others have found success by pursuing indirectly related law enforcement or criminal justice programs.
The fraud issue doesn't look like it will be going away any time soon, but smart people looking for an interesting line of work can turn this negative issue into a positive.
