Will Scott-Gall (+44 (0)207 029 5374, wscott-gall@kroll.com) is a senior director and Marek Mirecki (+44 (0)207 029 5162, marek.mirecki@kroll.com) an assistant director at Kroll in the UK.

New payment instructions, round number amounts, different formatting, even a change in font size – all may be innocent changes to a supplier invoice but must be checked before funds are paid away. William Scott-Gall and Marek Mirecki of Kroll advise on controls.
