A common notion is that certain tell-tale signs, such as not making eye contact, can be used as sure indicators that a person is lying. However, forensic investigator Ruben Naiker, CFE, points out that there may be other reasons, such as culture or personality, for why an individual might exhibit certain behaviors besides dishonesty. Understanding cultural differences and being aware of one’s personal biases during interviews are crucial for achieving accuracy in investigations, said Naiker during a presentation on the topic at the 34th Annual ACFE Global Fraud Conference.
