Annual Joint Meeting with the
Dallas Chapter of the
Association of Certified Fraud Examiners
CityPlace Conference Center

Meeting 12:00pm - 1:20pm
Registration begins at 11:30pm
Fraud: Follow the Money
Michael D. Lacenski, Internal Revenue Service
Money laundering. Medical fraud. Racketeering. Narcotics. Tax
evasion. These crimes all have a common bond----they are done for
profit. Every year criminals cost our society billions and billions
of dollars.
As criminals involved in fraud and corruption become
sophisticated in the ways they infuse their illegal proceeds into
the banking systems, financial investigators must be able to employ
forensic accounting to look behind the appearance of legitimacy and
examine the underlying flow of funds.
This presentation is designed to provide an overview of a
systematic financial approach to uncovering fraud and solving
crimes. It will highlight the methods, theories and applications
used by IRS Special Agents to “follow the money.’’
Michael D. Lacenski is the Special Agent in Charge of the
Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division, Dallas
Field Office. Mr. Lacenski was named to this position in May 2000
and reports directly to the Director, Field Operations, Midstates
Area. Mr. Lacenski began his IRS career in 1982 as a special agent
in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He held increasingly responsible positions
as group supervisor in Madison, Wisconsin, and Undercover Program
Manager in Cincinnati, Ohio. In 1996, Mr. Lacenski was selected as
the Branch Chief in Greensboro, North Carolina; the position he held
until his selection as Special Agent in Charge, Dallas Field Office.
Mr. Lacenski has a Bachelor’s Degree in Criminal Justice from the
University of Wisconsin at Platteville.
Pre-Meeting 10:30am - 11:30am
Fraud: Internal Audit & Investigations, a Case
Study
Bert Lacativo, Dispute Analysis and Investigations
When allegations of fraud and improper activity surface, Internal
Auditors often find themselves on the front lines. This interactive
case study is designed to address the issues facing Internal
Auditors when confronted with what to do as a result of these types
of allegations. The speaker will call upon his 25+ years of
experience to provoke discussion surrounding:
- Fielding “the call” from the Audit Committee Chair
- The role Internal Auditors can and should play to address
allegations of fraud and/or improper activity
- Interaction with outside counsel, independent investigative
teams and regulators
- Dealing with the External Auditor
Bert Lacativo, a former FBI Special Agent, is a Partner in
the Dispute Analysis and Investigations practice in Dallas, Texas.
Mr. Lacativo has more than twenty five years of financial and
investigative experience in the corporate, government and consulting
arenas and regularly provides forensic accounting, litigation and
investigative consulting services to law firms and companies.
Mr. Lacativo has assisted companies and their counsel in a wide
variety of investigative matters including financial statement
irregularities that have led to the quantification of financial
misstatements and the restatement of financial results. He has also
assisted companies in presenting investigative findings to
governmental authorities including the FBI, Department of Justice,
Office of Inspector General-Health and Human Services and the SEC.
Mr. Lacativo has also testified in Federal Court in connection with
a criminal antitrust matter.
Mr. Lacativo’s experience includes the provision of assistance to
companies in the development and implementation of ethics,
compliance and anti-fraud programs, policies and procedures.
Post-Meeting 1:30pm - 2:30pm
Is Your SAS 70 Worth its Weight in Paper?
Randy Gregg, Grant Thornton
With the increased scrutiny on SAS 70 Reports for Service
Organizations, is your SAS 70 meeting your objectives? SAS 70
Reports are often obtained but rarely analyzed. SAS 70 Reports can
be a valuable tool if prepared with controls relevant to user
organizations. Understand the two types of SAS 70 Reports and
determine whether they are meeting the needs for which they are
required.
Randy A. Gregg is a Senior Manager in Grant Thornton’s
Business Advisory Services Practice in Dallas. He has over 14 years
experience providing assurance and advisory services to a variety of
industries including public companies, manufacturing, retail, real
estate, construction, governments and non-profit organizations.
Randy has managed SAS 70 reviews, which comprised readiness
assessments and the completion of testing for data and item
processing companies and application service providers. He has
helped a variety of clients through their development of their
description of controls sections and advised them on revisions to
existing control objectives and controls statements to more
accurately depict the internal control structure of the
organization. This diversity enables Randy to produce creative
solutions for his clients. Randy is a champion of Grant Thornton’s
audit and internal control methodology and has in-depth experience
with our audit and internal control tools. Randy has also been a
guest speaker and presenter on the topic of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

IIA Research Foundation
The IIA Research Foundation has recently published a report
entitled Enterprise Risk Management: Identifying Risks in B2B
E-Commerce Relationships. Internal auditors have assumed the
responsibility of ensuring adequate internal controls are in place
across the enterprise. This enterprise includes relationships with
vendors, customers, and outsourcing providers through supply chain
arrangements. These extended-enterprise relationships are heavily
dependent on information technology-based systems linked through
increasingly tight business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce linkages.
This report will:
- Articulate the risks surrounding B2B e-commerce relationships
to enhance your understanding of how they impact enterprise risk
management.
- Explore the various facets of B2B e-commerce relationships to
help you attain a better understanding of key risk factors to
monitor as a component of B2B e-commerce risk management efforts.
- Help you understand how to assess relationships with current
or potential B2B partners to better comprehend the likely risk
level inherited via the trading relationship.
- Explain how to identify critical risk factors in sufficient
detail to replicate the process if a uniquely tailored set of
critical risk factors is desired.
- Provide a general strategy for addressing B2B e-commerce risks
as a component of an overall enterprise risk management strategy.

Endorsed Internal Audit Program at the
University of Texas at Dallas Update
A Fresh Start
With spring right around the corner and a lot of us looking
forward to something different than SOX, now is the time to begin
planning for what to do next. New ideas and creative approaches to
solving problems many times come from the more academic environments
since they can experiment with solutions to various problems. New
ideas can also be spurred by attending monthly IIA meetings along
with seminars that are offered by the Chapter.
Students many times have opportunities particularly in the
classroom to hear many different audit groups with very different
ways to approach audit. They also have lots of chances for case
study projects that require them to work on teams and come up with
different ways to solve problems. We would recommend for any of you
to take the opportunity to talk to some of the students you see at
the monthly meetings and see what they are working on in their
course work. The Internal Audit class this semester is working on
five different audits for the University of Texas at Dallas. The
thing that is great about the work they are doing is that it varies
from compliance audit, follow-up reviews, technology, operational
and financial. The diversity of the work is what we all hope for
going forward and they are having the opportunity to achieve it. If
you have never hired an intern in the past, consider it as
opportunity to bring new ideas and also give someone a chance to
bring ideas back to the classroom.
The Student Chapter resumes are currently available and to get
your fresh start with new ideas look for new staff from the UTD
Student Chapter at
www.utdallas.edu/orgs/iia. If you are interested in any of the
students for full time or internship positions you can set up
interviews on campus at the School of Management. Recruiting for
interns is beginning the week of February 21, so get your requests
in now. If you are interested in students in the program contact
Mark Salamasick at 972-883-4729 or
mark.salamasick@utdallas.edu.
