Absolutely. When it comes to accounting systems or newspaper stories
involving fraud I'm always reading the details as to how the person
got away with it.

One conclusion I've come to is that in a smaller non profit group
where you only have one or two bookkeeper/accountants the bank
statements should never, ever go to the office. Or if a small group
should never, ever go to the treasurers home address. Instead they
should go to a knowledgable member of the executive who doesn't have
signing authority.

This way the knowledgable person can do a quick glance at the bank
balance and/or cheques and then pass them on to the
treasurer/bookkeeper.
