the corrupt employee, this results in:

Accepted Answer

Need recognition scheme

Nora K. · Answer

B tbh. The key is the company being convinced to buy things it doesn't need, which is classic for a need recognition scheme. C is tempting but that's usually about faking exclusivity or sole-source justifications, not just buying unneeded stuff. Seen similar on practice tests, so pretty sure B is right here.

Emma D. · Answer

Not C, it's B. The trap is thinking sole-source, but here it's just about tricking the company into unnecessary buys.

Ben · Answer

C for me. The unnecessary purchase feels like a sole-source angle since the corrupt employee could be steering deals to their chosen supplier. Might be overthinking but C lines up with how some procurement frauds look on paper, right?

B/C? C looks tempting but I think it's a trap, this is more classic need recognition since it’s about buying stuff not needed. Open to corrections if I missed something on supplier selection.

B or C? These fraud scheme names all blur together, but vendor pushes for unneeded stuff lines up with a need recognition scheme (B). Sometimes I wish the exam just called it what it is-classic procurement fraud. Open to pushback if someone sees a better fit.
