I am our wards financial clerk. I recently became aware that the rent recites a member has been submitting may be fraudulent. I am suspicious because his recite is for a unit owned by his auntie, but a member of the bishopbric said the unit we are paying for is being renovated. I have been a project manager for federal projects. When fraud came up I fired the contractor and turned over the documents to lawyers. If it turns out that we have been making payments on fraudulent recites, what is the church policy, and what advice should I give to the bishop?

See Handbook 1: 5.2.9

Your bishop should review section 5.2.9 of Handbook 1.
