Project Description
I have more than seven months of checking-account statements that need a professional, forensic eye. My objective is to gain a clear picture of the discrepancies— unauthorized transactions, inaccurate balance reporting, or unusual spending patterns hidden in the day-to-day activity. No litigation is involved; this is an internal review aimed at family clarity and accuracy.
Here is how I see the engagement unfolding:
• You comb through each monthly statement and flag anything that looks off.
• Findings are organized in a clear, chronological report that highlights standout transactions, with a note for why it / they, were suspect and require further explanation.
• Once irregularities have been flagged, you drill down: cross-reference data or confirm running balances, against any follow-up documentation I supply you.
A succinct executive summary up front, followed by detailed schedules in Excel or a similar format, will let me absorb the big picture quickly and then dive into the numbers.
Because the task is highly specialised, I value a CPA, CFE, or similar certification plus hands-on fraud-detection experience. Familiarity with data-analysis tools such as IDEA, ACL, or even advanced Excel functions (pivot tables, Power Query) will help you move efficiently through the volume.
A short outline of your proposed approach and timeline isn't necessary but would be appreciated. will fast-track the selection process.
The project is ready to start as soon and I look forward to your insights.
