2. Phantom projects: A minister needed money. He got his team to create few projects. He has good friends as directors of international development organizations. He is well-aware that international development money is mainly for corruption.
He submitted the projects to those friendly organizations and got few of them funded. He pocketed the money received and sent false reports and accounting documents.

I have personally witnessed this scheme used by senior project mangers in international development agencies. They created good sounding projects, got the funding, but pocketed the money while delivering false reports.
Most of the development agencies are paper-compliant organizations. Once you know what papers they like and how to forge them, it’s an open season to enjoy free money donated by goodwill people from foreign countries.
