2) People saying that it's not Graciously Professional to expose a fraud, if they are aware one has been perpetrated. My reply, "Poppycock!"

3) People saying that it's not their place to expose a fraud, if they are aware one has been committed. My reply, "Of course you have a duty to expose frauds. Do not turn a blind eye when something harmful occurs in your community."

4) The fourth and most important point is to be biased toward believing, to investigate with a positive attitude, to talk to people with different roles and responsibilities to check facts, and then if you are fully certain that a problem exists, bring it up discretely (especially if you are young, and perhaps have a hard time imagining just how little of the world you have experienced so far).

Good Thoughts.
