Benfords Law states that most phenomena in nature begin with 1s and 2's. The law has been shown to apply very accurately to the amount of money listed on peoples income statements. Investigators have used this fact when investigating financial fraud, and can often determine when people have fabricated numbers, since the perpetrators will choose varying amounts so that the first number in each of those amounts is distributed evenly from 1 to 9. Proponents of Benfords Law, therefore, argue that as the technique of applying Benfords law becomes even more refined, an experts ability to determine whether a plaintiff has engaged in financial fraud will become as accurate in determining guilt as a fingerprint is today.

• CBenfords Law, after being used in several notable cases, has become highly publicized and intimately known to many likely to commit such crimes. 分析该选项
