Abstract

This two‐part case allows for maximum student engagement through preparation, in‐class discussion, and through a Part B case that is part of the Teaching Note. Through this case, students work to identify possible fraud schemes, plan an investigation, and perform horizontal analysis calculations. Students will learn about the concept of ethical hacking, red flag identification, internal control weaknesses, and investigation considerations for fraud schemes. Further, in‐class planning for next steps and investigation can occur, providing an opportunity for group work and in‐depth learning. This case offers flexibility for instructors in that it can be covered over one class or multiple classes, or can be assigned as an independent or group assignment. This teaching note provides an overview of the case along with guidance for teaching this case. Krazy Kimmy's : cas de détection de fraude Le cas proposé, qui se présente en deux volets, sollicite un maximum de participation des étudiants dans la préparation de l'analyse, la discussion en classe et la partie B du cas présentée dans les notes pédagogiques. Dans cette étude de cas, les étudiants sont appelés à relever les stratagèmes de fraude possibles, à planifier une enquête et à effectuer les calculs d'une analyse horizontale. Ils se familiarisent ainsi avec la notion de piratage éthique, les signaux de pré‐alerte, les faiblesses du contrôle interne et les indicateurs de stratagèmes frauduleux à prendre en considération dans le cadre d'une enquête. En outre, la planification des étapes subséquentes ainsi que de l'enquête peut se dérouler en classe, l'occasion s'offrant ainsi aux étudiants de travailler en groupe et d'approfondir leur apprentissage. Ce cas offre de la flexibilité aux enseignants puisqu'il peut être traité en un seul ou plusieurs cours, ou qu'il peut être proposé en travail individuel ou collectif. Les présentes notes pédagogiques donnent un aperçu du cas ainsi que des conseils sur la façon de procéder à l’étude.
