The department's Compliance and Investigations Division shall establish a risk-based system of monitoring and preventing fraudulent activity related to vehicle registration and titling in order to efficiently allocate resources and personnel, including:
(1) establishing a risk-based system of monitoring counties and their contractors, including procedures to notify county tax assessor-collectors concerning routine and periodic review and disclosure procedures concerning possible fraudulent activity;
(2) developing criteria to determine varying risk levels for the department's fraud monitoring functions to strategically allocate resources and personnel;
(3) reviewing the department's methods for collecting and evaluating related information, including the viability of incorporating more remote transaction review practices to supplement periodic, but less frequent, on-site visits to counties;
(4) notifying a tax assessor-collector of possible fraudulent activity in the tax assessor-collector's office as authorized by law enforcement; and
(5) developing and providing training to fraud investigations staff.
