    In the leafy suburbs of Pretoria, there’s a growing tide of mistrust and frustration as a once-respected chartered accountant finds herself in the midst of a forensic investigation. Her disheartened clients allege disturbing delays and puzzling bank withdrawals in the winding up of deceased estates. The investigator is sifting through mountains of paperwork and bank accounts, tracking transactions that link this sophisticated, jet-setting professional and her bookkeeper to a web of hidden irregularities. These allegedly include forged signatures and stolen identities, mysterious changes in company papers and unexplained cash withdrawals and deposits. But this alleged scamster wasn’t just taking from any client: she seemingly targeted those at their most vulnerable - long-time clients and friends dealing with the passing of a loved one. While both the accountant and the bookkeeper have gone to ground, they blame each other for the crimes and misdemeanours of which they stand accused. Carte Blanche investigates.

    It’s troubling how some individuals take advantage of vulnerable families during times of grief. Bringing attention to these unethical practices is essential for protecting those in distress. I believe in the importance of raising awareness. I look forward to seeing more exposes on this critical topic.

    Shouldn't the executor the accountant and the lawyer all be separate individuals? The accountant shouldn't have sole signing powers over the estate but should have to ask the executor to sign. Otherwise this kind of fraud would be all too common.
