Primary data was collected using a questionnaire.

Data were analyzed using multiple regression analysis. The research results found that the government's internal control system and compliance with accounting rules positively affected fraud prevention in the Surakarta City government. Additional testing by adding educational level and background as control variables provides consistent findings that the internal control system and compliance with accounting rules positively affect fraud prevention. In contrast, academic level and background do not affect fraud prevention. These findings confirm that the Surakarta City government's success in suppressing fraud cases in the area is because it has an excellent internal control system and adheres to accounting rulesDOI: https://doi.org/10.26905/afr.v7i1.11902
