Internal offenders
Internal white-collar offenders are individuals who have legitimate access to premises and systems that they use to commit and conceal financial crime harming their own organization online. This chapter presents three case studies of internal white-collar offenders online. The first case study is concerned with a trusted employee in the social security agency in Denmark who committed embezzlement online. The second case study is concerned with employees at the Estonian branch of a Danish bank helping organized criminals in Russia conduct money laundering of proceeds from crime online. The third case study is concerned with a trusted employee who committed bank fraud online. Two out of three case studies presented in this chapter are concerned with female white-collar offenders online, which invite the introduction of the issue of gendered crime at the end of this chapter.
