A government study recently discovered that consumer fraud takes a $40 billion toll each year on its victims. According to a Harris poll, more than 92% of all Americans are affected.

As the lead accountant, the CEO has asked you to conduct research on consumer fraud and produce an analysis paper that describes the fraud and explains what can be done to reduce or eliminate it. The paper should also include the impact of consumer fraud on organizations, employees, and consumers. The analysis paper should provide in-depth information for how to protect the consumers and also information on how the organization can inform their consumers of the risk to their personal information and other fraud types that they are susceptible to.

In addition to the written report on the research conducted, prepare graphical representation of the research that you have completed. For example, provide graphs of the different types of fraud and how often they occur or the increase in consumer fraud in recent years. Create and present at least four graphs/tables within your paper.
