Abstract

This study identifies potential fraud schemes, evaluates risk controls, and discusses anti-fraud strategies using a case study of the Directorate General of Taxes in Indonesia, conducted by exploring phenomena related to fraud risk in the scope of business processes. By using fraud triangle theory and rational choice theory, this research extends the literature by providing evidence that fraud can be prevented by increasing the probability of fraud-scheme detection. This study examines potential tax revenue activities rarely examined in the literature. Our results conclude that, out of 25 fraud scenarios, five were categorized as high risk and 11 were medium. This study discusses appropriate mitigation measures of residual fraud risks at the organizational level. Furthermore, we evaluate relevant anti-fraud strategies, both implemented and non-implemented.
