Add to ORKGAbstract: Is Benford’s law a good instrument to detect fraud in reports of statistical and scientific data? For a valid test the probability of “false positives ” and “false negatives ” has to be low. However, it is very doubtful whether the Benford distribution is an appropriate tool to discriminate between manipulated and non-manipulated estimates. Further research should focus more on the validity of the test and test results should be interpreted more carefully
