Explain the shell company fraud.

What will be an ideal response?

A shell company fraud first requires that the perpetrator establish a false supplier on the books of the victim company. The fraudster then manufactures false purchase orders, receiving reports, and invoices in the name of the vendor and submits them to the accounting system, which creates the allusion of a legitimate transaction. Based on these documents, the system will set up an account payable and ultimately issue a check to the false supplier (the fraudster).
