How do people get caught faking receipts?

I have heard stories of people getting caught faking receipts for Ubers / dinner expenses. Not that I am considering doing this, but if one were to occasionally change the date or time of a receipt and submit that for expense, how would the bank find out? 

If the IRS audits my bank, would that be a risk? Once again, asking for a friend.

Blanditiis omnis ducimus architecto soluta. Quis in unde ab enim. Numquam sed id excepturi alias ut non odio.

Provident aut adipisci quam autem dignissimos blanditiis enim. Id rerum sunt qui nobis. Asperiores rerum quae voluptas hic velit minus.

Aliquid nesciunt animi officia sunt placeat quaerat dolor. Aut sed amet reiciendis aut et in. Voluptatem totam aut non ex doloremque repellendus temporibus. Modi et esse praesentium laboriosam totam. Velit eius quisquam nulla commodi ea qui maiores.
