    Shows how HUGE the Medtronic margins must be, to not notice this on your balance sheet. Mind blowing

    How naive to believe that the nice little lady, mentioned in passing, spent R70,000 a month on Woolworth fruit and veg! What a ludicrous example.

    Pervasive fraud is EASY to commit.... Its simple especially if the company is not vigilant when it comes to payment procedures. In other words, one person can request for payments to be done and another person processes payments, not one individual doing the whole payment from start to end....
