54. The Biggest Consumer Fraud You Didn’t Know About with Tracy Coenen

The Data Sleuth Podcast

On this week's episode of the Investigation Game, Leah talks with Tracy Coenen about her take on the multi-level marketing industry. After working as a distributor for a well-known multi-level marketing company only to break even on her buy in, Coenen has used her expertise as a fraud investigator to highlight the scam that most people don't know about. Listen in to understand how this model often takes advantage of its members.

Tracy has been investigating fraud for more than 20 years, but she didn’t always want to be a forensic accountant. With a dream of one day being a prison warden, Tracy went to Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI to get a criminology degree. A class on financial crime investigations reminded her how much she loved Encyclopedia Brown books as a kid. She continued her criminology degree, but added accounting and economics courses so she could sit for the CPA exam… and here Tracy is, finding money in cases of corporate fraud, high net worth divorce, and other financial shenanigans.
