Fraud prevention is not only the responsibility of the Finance team.
As for OP hoping to get his wife's TP and Avios credited to his BAEC account that's a non-starter. It's like buying a ticket you have no intention of actually flying and still hoping to receive the TP and Avios. Never going to happen.
I agree with you and I flagged instances on multiple occasions. However their ethos was all about cure and not prevention so diligence was certainly not on their priority list... and with that kind of attitude I had little sympathy for them. To give you an example my work email account is still active at that employer years after me having left and I still have full access to shared drives and privileged company information. I could use that information against them if I so desired but I choose not to.
I was amazed at some the tenacity behind some of the frauds and scams that went on by some chancers and what lengths some went to do what they did until it eventually got noticed. It's the how's and semantics that I always found interesting. You can be certain these things will always get picked up eventually.... it's just matter of when.
