Becky Bokrand can't discuss a recent case she turned over to the Federal Bureau of Investigations, but she's seen her share of embezzlers.

The certified public accountant is a fraud examiner and certified in financial forensics with the Fort Myers accounting firm of Markham Norton Mosteller Wright. “There are always red flags,” she says.
