Summary: very informative
Comment: I am a investigator for the U.S. gov't. This book is very informative. The book I believe, is not meant to be read cover to cover. Instead it is more like a ref. guide to all types of fraud. Very good book. I'm glad I have this in my library.

Summary: Avoid victimization by fraud, consult this book
Comment: I hear or read about fraud everyday--it's scary. Not wanting to become a victim, I got The Fraud Identification Handbook, one of the most reasonably priced books on fraud available. Every type of fraud--that I can think of--is covered.
Before I bought a house, I read the Read Estate Fraud section, which prompted me to check a broker's license history. Following the Handbook's recommendation, I avoided dealing with someone who had a history of complaints.
I am considering having work done on my home, and I am so glad I consulted the section on Home Repair Fraud first. I will not do business with a contractor who demands some up-front payment.
Clearly well researched, all of the supporting examples of fraud are referenced. Tips on prevention follow each section, lending credence to the author's expertise on the subject. I can recommend this book to others who want to be aware of and avoid fraud.

Summary: This is NOT a 5-Star Book!
Comment: I don't understand how the other reviewers could give this book 5 stars!
The book IS definitely comprehensive.
It is poorly edited. For example the author does not know the difference between effect and affect.
It is repetitious. Many sentences/paragraphs are repeated throughout the book.
Worst of all, it is dull.
It is NOT a bad book. But it's not very good, either. Strictly mediocre.
