"Catch Me If You Can" (2.0 Ethics CPE)

"Catch Me If You Can" - Today's Pink Collar Criminal

Presented by Kelly Paxton

Kelly comes highly recommended as she presented at last year's IMA Global Conference in San Diego.  

Kelly Paxton is a certified fraud examiner, private investigator and pink collar crime expert.  

While working at a financial services firm, a client was arrested on wire fraud charges.  This ended up leading Kelly to a new, much more exciting career as a special agent for US Customs.  Kelly specialized in white-collar crime, narcotics and undercover operations.  Kelly also was a contract investigator for the US Government agencies performing hundreds of background investigations. Thankfully she did not do Edward Snowden’s background.  Yes, her husband did ask her if she did. 

Kelly has worked for the public and private sector investigating embezzlement, conflict of interest and workplace investigations. She received her Certified Fraud Examiner designation in 2008.  While working at the Washington County Sheriff’s office as the fraud analyst she realized all but one of her suspects were women.

What started as a research project for Kelly, investigating women embezzlers, has now become a website and a very relevant and popular speaking topic.
