Agenda

“Fraud”

The realities …

There are almost as many different definitions of

fraud as there are African writers:

“Fraud is the unlawful, intentional making of

misrepresentation which causes actual prejudice

to another or holds potential prejudice to

another” Dr CR Botha

What is fraud?

Integrated Risk Management Services

All of the following elements of the fraud need to be proved simultaneously in court

➢ PREJUDICE - means potential or actual prejudice

➢ MISREPRESENTATION - behaviour (like nodding your head)

- omission (not to do something)

- actual misrepresenting a fact

➢ UNLAWFULNESS - act or omission was unlawful in terms of South

African law

➢ CASUALITY - potential prejudice sufficient - casual connection

lost its relevance

➢ CRIMINAL INTENT - intention to deceive is not an intention to defraud

What are the elements of fraud?
