Edward, Fraud detection is more a function of overall accounting practice rather than the accounting software per se although the software implementation can be designed to support it. Reconciliations and procedures around the raising of invoices and paying of bills are often the prime defences. Control of access to money and strict procedures for recording and handling cash where each individual's actions can be checked separately are usually essential.
GnuCash is really not setup for implementation of the primary controls where particular functionality is usually handled by separate individuals who only have access to the specific functionality they use and no access to the rest of the accounting system with only a financial controller having system wide access. GnuCash is also not simultaneously accessible by multiple users without the risk of conflict and loss of data. In a credit union situation it is likely you would want immediate entry of cash transactions into the system which might be problematical if you have more than one cashier or site.
