Spam Nation: The Inside Story of Organized Cyber CrimeSelected by Dick Carozza, CFEFraud Magazine Editor-in-Chief

The ACFE Bookstore offers hundreds of resources including books and

manuals, self-study CPE courses, the CFE Exam Prep Course, merchan-

dise and more. In this interview, Dick Carozza, CFE, editor-in-chief of Fraud

Magazine, offers his suggestion on one must-have ACFE resource to help

you in your fight against fraud.

What is your professional background and current role at the ACFE?

My background is in journalism. I’ve worked as an editor and writer for several

newspapers and magazines. I’ve been editor-in-chief of the ACFE’s Fraud Maga-

zine since we developed it into a four-color magazine in 1995.

What ACFE bookstore product would you recommend as a beneficial

resource to CFEs?

Spam Nation: The Inside Story of Organized Cybercrime — From Global Epidemic

to Your Front Door by Brian Krebs.

Why would CFEs be interested in this product?

Brian Krebs, the author of KrebsOnSecurity.com, is a noted cybersecurity expert and a former

Washington Post reporter. (He’ll be a keynoter at the upcoming 26th Annual ACFE Global Fraud

Conference and will receive the ACFE’s Guardian Award.) He broke the story that credit and debit

card accounts stolen in a massive data breach at Target had been flooding underground black

markets. Krebs also discovered breaches at Home Depot, Neiman Marcus and others. Because

of his deep contacts in the financial sector and the shadowy cybercrime world, he’s able to pro-

vide detailed, practical workings of some of the largest global cyberfrauds. Early detection equals

prevention. (See the cover article for the March/April 2015 issue of Fraud Magazine.)

How is the information in this product useful for CFEs in their professional roles?

CFEs’ clients, employers, family members and friends look to them to help deter fraud in their

lives and organizations. The detailed information Krebs provides — including the prevention tips

— will help us keep our personally identifiable information intact and prevent organizational data

breaches. And the book is a great read. Krebs writes about the machinations of cybercrime rings

and his travels to Russia to interview some of the colorful, complex fraudsters who spew spam

around the world that enables identity theft. Edge-of-your seat writing!
