I saw a post on here earlier about the boldest expense you ever put through. I'm just curious how have you not been caught?

What a shitty friend.

like

heard about a girl at a pwc office years ago was traveling a lot and expensed her wedding dress that was about $5k+, thinking she wouldn't get caught. Since she traveled a lot and regularly had high expense reports like that, it was approved. She told a friend and friend tried to do the same but friend never had high expense reports so it was flagged. Friend ratted on her when she was questioned, both had to repay the firm and fired. Learned about that through a guy that worked at that office and transferred to EY same time I did. Not worth the risk in my opinion.

I definitely don't think it's work it, but we're required to show a receipt or cc statement for any thing over $25. How can you possibly put though a $5k dress and not get caught

Because you can put it on the corporate card and not have to show a receipt. Not all firms require receipts for everything expensed and only need receipts for certain items. Not sure how she did it but she did

My clients are pushing back on it this year, and I can't say I blame them. If I were in their shoes, I'd rather take the risk of not filing than the expense of filing again. From my own point of view, I don't really want to spend my time on such returns, either, even if the revenue and easy return are nice.
