It is always interesting to understand the brains working for the creation of wealth through fraudulent means. Banks and other financial institutions are more prone to attacks by this virus in spite of the presence of foolproof systems. But systems do not excuse themselves. It is therefore equally important to learn how and why things go wrong.

This book is a compilation of short-stories on how a particular fraud or forgery was planned, attempted and was successful. All the individuals involved were, however, later caught and punished according to the crime committed. The emphasis is thus on the modus operandi only and the actual situation as happened has been laid out bare for the reader to look at.
