So here's the set-up: two guys are in business together. Preferably some tech thing or other. That internet thing, you know. It's doing well, very well.
Or is it?
You see, one of the two has been skimming money somehow, some way. He's about to get busted so he fakes his partner's suicide. My MC, of course, figures it out and busts him.
So here's my question: how would the skimmer be skimming? What exactly would he be doing to be able to line his pockets and give the appearance of a successful business? I have never been in business and have no idea about accounting practices. Can anyone suggest a simple-to-explain scam he might be running?
Thanks for any and all help!
