So this person I work with keeps on bragging on how she told her auto insurance company she drives her car for 7500 miles per year, but she usually goes 8000! She also says she told them it’s all for personal use, but I don’t buy it.
It’s not fair. Us honest drivers have to pay more because scum like her lie to the insurance companies.
Is there a way to report this? Or should I wait for karma to bite her? Insurance companies can find out if she is lying…right?

I was having a fight with 2 friends, and it was about the legality of faking your own death.
Obviously, if you gain any money (ie Insurance Fraud), commit Identity Theft, desecrate a body, dodge any debts, or child-payments, get someone blamed for your murder, or do Anything against the law, then it’s illegial. Pretend none of those things happen.
It boiled down to this scenario:
Joe has no outstanding debts, has never been married, and has no children.
Joe pretends to be kidnapped. His friend Mac helps out. Mac sends several letters to Joe’s family, demanding a ransom and threatening Joe’s safety. (Mac has no intention of collecting ransom or hurting Joe.) After a few days, Mac stops, and Joe is never heard from again. Joe’s family assume Joe has been killed.
Joe continues to use his regular identification and pays taxes.
Is this scenario illegial, or just a nasty trick?
-Hoping someone in-the-know will settle this argument.

Basically, my friend’s father is a really hardworking man who has been facing a lot of financial situations during his lifetime, as my friend told me. His father is a dump truck driver in Ontario and he had two trucks. One didn’t function well so he sold that. Unfortunately, his second truck got stolen, he’s thinking it’s the same guy who he bought it from. He’s in a major struggle at the moment and has insurance on it. He paid off the truck he bought from the guy around k but he also has no evidence of it, no invoice or anything because he thought he could trust him and then this
happens. Insurance is giving k for the stolen truck but for the better person, either my friend’s father or the person he bought the truck from. The guy had cheated him and he’s mostly likely receiving the money, due to the fact that my friend’s father has no evidence of paying him off, he has a very less chance of winning it. He also spoke to the guy he bought it from, and he said he doesn’t care and that he will see him in court. My friend’s father is a such hardworking person and always struggled in his life and I am feeling very sorry for him and my friend. Is there any way that he can prove to the judge to win the money to help pay off his debts? His truck was stolen but they don’t know who to believe, the guy or my friend’s father, the case seems complicated and there deciding on the court date on who will win. He only has evidence of him paying k to the guy but not the other k. Is there anyway he could win? My friend’s father is broke because of that guy because he depended on that truck for his work and now this. If only God can see this. Please help my friend! Anyone that’s a lawyer that can give advice on what to do on the situation, please, the money is going in the wrong hands.

got into a car accident. the guy hit my driver side rear tire, cracked the base above the wheel and scraped up both driver side doors. roughly could have been at most 00. i have pics from the scene. body shop takes it on sept. 20. insurance company looks at it, claims 7000 in damages. took pics. i had the police at the scene to take statement. i made a recorded statement to insurance co. my story doesnt match damages claimed. insurance paid body shop 7 g’s. they claim every time i call them that the car isnt ready b/c parts are on back order. nov 18th they say i can pick up the car at 7pm. at 7:19 i walked into body shop – in wide open space they are painting my whole car. no filter. they tell me to pick the car up tomorrow at 8pm (in the dark). next day, paint is chipping off my handle and gas tank. took it to a body shop for second opinion. was told a bunch of parts to my car have been filled with "mud" – some bonding. no parts were replaced. front and back bumper effed with. insurance co. said i have two options, either take it back to original shop and demand it fixed or sue them. they claim they already paid and have no more to do with the situation because it wasnt a body shop on their list. i was told it was. do i have a case? its clearly insurance fraud right? i mean why make a statement if they just disregard and proceed. no way was it 7000 worth. please someone who knows what they are talking about respond. thanks.

I’m being charged with grand larceny in the 3rd. this is a huge mess. I used state health insurance to try to work through psychological issues. Now DSS is saying that my husband makes more money then stated on the application (and on his paystubs and on our tax return). because of this they are saying that all the benifits used are stollen and therefore they are charging me with larceny. I am going to be arrested on Thursday. i have a lawyer and I have had past arrests but no jail time. I live in NY. I’m 26 and have a 6 year old. Can my lawyer try to make a deal to avoid jail time? Any idea what I should logically expect to happen? If i go to jail my daughter will go to Pakistan and i’ll never see her again. I never meant to commit fraud, this is all very scary and my husband isn’t doing anything to help.

this is complicated. during a show cause for failure to pay child support, the plaintiff intentionally refused to disclose many payments, also charged higher insurance rates than the actual rate, the defendant was found guilty. defendant did not appeal due to several reasons, attorney fees etc. After much research and recovery of payment documentation defendant just recently tried to have this issue heard in another related hearing but was told the issue was moot. Is there actually any way to recover this money that was not divulged during the show cause hearing,? Can I file theft charges? This has been a very complicated case and the plaintiff intentionally refused to reveal these payments. The money that was not divulged to the courts is a large sum and had these payments been made aware of to the courts, defendant would not have been found guilty. Is it possible to take my case to the states attorneys office? I really do NOT want this person to get away with the crimes they have committed. They are in the legal profession, have used their position to intentionally commit perjury, fraud, theft and malicious prosecution. I know it sounds outlandish but it is true, there are people in this world that have absolutely no respect for the honesty and integrity of the Courts and are so stuck on themselves and greedy they could care less about others freedom and sense of living. I do not have the money for attorneys. Or should I just figure they are only one of the millions that do this sort of thing in our court system everyday and forget about it? I appreciate all information from everyone, Thank You. In Maryland.

There’s someone I know that was in a car accident a few months back, He was stating the other day that he was frauding the insurance co cuz he claimed that he hurt his back and said that he hopes that the claim hurries and gets settled cuz hes worried that they will find out that he had lied about his claim and they will get him for insurance fraud. Apparently his claim hasn’t been settled yet cuz he wants one amount and the insurance company wants to give him a lower amount. How can i go about finding out which insurance co that he is going against? This man is very ruthless, he really does deserve to be reported.

Or is it only the basis for "physical" response on my part??
This lying, manipulative, Filipine trollop has taken me to the cleaners and now is destroying the relationship I have with my family members by sleeping with my brother!!
Since she entered into the relationship with me (initially online) with only the intention of STEALING as much money as she could from me (ESTAFA), married me only to obtain entry into the U.S.A. (Immigration Fraud). Moved out after finding out that she had already STOLEN all of my money, only to TARGET my brother to sleep with and "con" him now. ALL the while working here without a WORK PERMIT (or Conditional Residency). Files FALSE CHANGE OF ADDRESS Forms to interfere (and screen) MY mail!!! File several FRAUDULANT INSURANCE claims on my health insurance. FAIL to report all of her "illegal" income to the IRS (TAX FRAUD)……
USCIS has done NOTHING, in fact they have FAILED to keep me informed of her/our interview to remove the "conditional" sts.

My husband and I do not live together but are not divorced, he is claming to government agencies that out children live with him and not with me. He also lives with his pregnant girlfriend and they both have an income but does not report her. I do not know how to prove to these agencies that my children live with me. I recieve no government help but I do have a full time job. He has applied for food stamps and government insurance and has changed the childrens addresses at thier doctors office and school to his. When i try to change them back they say they need proof. I do not want to keep him from seeing his children. I am also not looking to get the benifits for myself, but I do not believe it is fair that he claims to the goventment that he is the sole parent. Is court the only way for me to get this straightened out?

A quit claim deed transferred real property from one party to an executrices so that the equity of the real property would not be used for the owner’s medical bills. The family was told that there was a will executed by the original owner of the property to be disseminate to the owner’s children in the event of death.
The original owner has pass away and the executrices has now claims that the total estate including the real property is all hers.
There is no record of the will in probate court or records, but prior to the death of the original owner the family had seem the will and has knowledge of the contents of the will, but the original copy was taken by the executrices; family members who were willed the property have maintained the property according to the wishes of the owner as well as paid taxes and property insurance. At the time of the transfer no one questioned the executrices because she is a family member.
Now, she has claimed that the documents that are required to prove she commented fraud are buried and time has given her the rights to the property and she transferred it to her two adult children.
The medi-cal documents were completed sometime in 1993 and the owner passed 12 years ago. The property had been transferred in segments co-owners they the original owner need major medical surgery so the entire property was transfer to the executrices now the family is concern that they have lost the gift of their mother and will be responsible for any accrued debt that will have to be paid back.
Also, is this one crime or two?
So, is there a status of limitation? I have researched the Medi-cal website but it does not cover what is fraud nor does it state a limitation.
Thank you for real answers.
In answer to your question the family has continue to ask the executrices for the will, but she has claimed that it did not exist no one knew who the attorney was who wrote the will but a lead was found but the attorney has stated that the deceased only made inquiries about a will and they did not have it filed. The same attorney mentioned that the probate does not began until it get filed in probate court so an appointment has been made, because it is believed that the cost of the medi-cal is more than the property is worth.

How or where can I find answer to questions about possible insurance misrepresentatin or fraud by an employer?
I have discovered that I wasn’t covered by medical insurance when I was supposed to be by my employer. Money was taken out of my check weekly to cover the premiums, I had been insured for over a year with this employer at the time and I didn’t recive any notice of a lapse in coverage. I realised after receiving unpaid bills from my doctor’s offices for annual check-ups, that my employer had let our policy lapse. My employer immediately cut me a check to cover the bills and my insurance premiums were paid. From what I can figure, I was not covered and unaware of it for 2 months. That was over a year ago, and now I think it has happened again. I also think my employer is going to drop our insurance policies altogether and I was wondering how much advanced notice they are required to give?
I live and work in Missouri and am very worried about what my rights to coverage are!

A friend of mine’s brother committed insurance fraud and I am very disturbed by this. He car had not been running so he got full coverage on it and then had someone push his car (with theirs) into a tree. He says it is not a big deal and he is only getting like 00.00 so if he was ever caught he would not really be sentenced. Does anyone know what the sentence would be in Michigan for this? Also wouldnt his friend who helped him be in trouble also???
what I have is not hearsay…. I know it is what happened… they have told several ppl this is what happened, and he changed his insurance from plpd to full coverage a week before he did this…..

popped out and hit our neighbors (who we cant stand but thats another story) car. We told them and made a claim with our homeowners insurance (they are renters). So the neighbor told us she wasnt even going to worry about it cause it was a little dent. Well a week later we get a letter saying that they have mailed the neighbors a check for 746.00 for the estimate. My questions are:
Is there a time limit when they need to get it fixed
Can they just take the money and not worry about getting it fixed.
Should I tell the insurance company they havent even gotten it fixed, its been 3 weeks. I dont think they will get if fixed, they are scumbags and freeloaders. But is that insurance fraud? The got a brand new truck a few months ago because someone "hit them" I think it was intentional also, these people are shady
thanks

I caused a car accident back in March. I have already paid all my fines and I am finished with court ( The criminal aspect anyway… I was charged with careless driving). I signed an agreement with my lawyer/court stating that I would pay restitution for whatever my insurace did not cover. (I have full coverage insurance)
My passenger was minorly injured. Instead of filing a claim with my insurance company, she has filed for restitution with the court. I have been ordered to pay 9,358. After taking a close look at her medial bills, she has enclosed bills from BEFORE the accident and even a collection agency notice from 10 days after the accident. None of her gas milage listed (1,500 worth) matches with any of the medical bill dates of service. She also had full coverage insurance and I was told that her lost wages were paid for by her auto insurance. (I was told by a mutal friend, not sure how much truth was in the statement – so I took it with a grain of salt)
Clearly the courts did not look at this before the judgement was signed.
My insurance company has been trying to get ahold of her and/or her laywer and neither will answer and calls nor return them!
I have challenged the restitution and my question is what do you think is going to happen now? I know I need to hire a lawyer soon but what usually happens in a case like this where she is dodging my insurance company and the outdated medical bills from 2007? (Accident happend in 2008)
Will I be stuck paying the whole amount in the long run? Any advice that you can give me would be great.

I went to a plastic surgeon for a cosmetic procedure. She somehow convinced me that this is covered by my health insurance (private) because it is an airway obstruction. The doctor ended up doing unnecessary work which has results in permanent pain and damage. She billed insurance about ,000 in addition to what I paid her. I’ve heard she does this to others. I called the insurance company and they said there is nothing they can do about it. Huh? Any ideas on how I can report this fraud and to whom?

BidClerk.com (a consumer/professional construction job match site) matched me up with a scam/fraud artist that I had posted to build a small home around 700 sq. ft. They gave my home number to several contractors one of who was persistant. To shorten the story, I live on the GA side of the GA/AL state line. This fraudulent builder came to my house in GA and said he could build me this home for 50,000.00 which according to the plans, was reasonable, we signed contract, he presented license with company and references. I called Marvin’s Home improvement ctr who was reference and was to supply materials, they gave glowing reference as well as other ref. also I ran background, criminal and civil, both turned up negative for cases. I checked with his county of residence, still no court record. I hired him and within several weeks, he had made labor/material draws equaling 90% of contracted price for home. I phoned and emailed BIDCLERK several times when I became suspicious but they would never produce any information about him as he was an account holder. Although, they freely gave him my info. Turns out, he got locked up 3 weeks into the contract, he only completed 20% of project and had 90% of my money, 48,000.00 and I was out of a home and money. Turns out, he had NO license, NO Business, NO employees and alot of experience in this activity as he was already on probation for this with the state licensure board of AL. On probation for drugs, forgery and other charges, He had several Probation officers and was still free to do this to me. BidClerk.com will not take any responsibility even though they said my job was mislabled and is how he got my information. I did everything anyone could do in checking him out and even a business gave him reference and then turned against him later and withdrew from my project. He had no insurance either. I labeled all my checks to him what they were for but he didn’t have a bank account and cashed these large checks at my bank and used the cash for everything but materials. After he was locked up the last time, he just that day got 5,000 of my money and took it into court behind my back and they locked him up permanently that day. he had my check cashed and took 5,000.00 into Jail. 10 days later, I was filing claims with the State of AL and with authorities for fraud when the shell of the house burned to the ground in the middle of the night. He thought I’m sure would relieve him of responsibility since he didn’t think I could prove how much of home was completed. I had hired a home inspector he never met who took pictures just days before the fire which documented the house was only 20% and had major foundation problems.
In the end, I have no house, lost all my money, had to sell the land just to move from the nice apt into a low class apt building where I have been broken into 5 times by other tenants who were arrested and evicted. Every tenant in this building has stolen from me. It is not safe and is over 100 years old. I live on fixed income as I am disabled and this guy knew this as I was going to the Cancer center when he was doing this to me. He didn’t care at all and planned and frauded me with intent as he knew no one was around to stop him and I often did not feel well. I took him at his word. I have all documents. Even his fake license. They have locked him up. Could not prove arson although they know he had it done with my money, and I can’t sue him because he has his assets hid in families name. Cannot get, done spoke with 3 lawyers and it would cost thousands just to get it into court and I wouldn’t get anything in the end. Does anyone know of any resource, any entity or help I could possibly receive in community/state/government subsidized financially as I do not have any money now, live in a dump with criminals just like him, and have no hope of getting out of this mess. He just walked into my life, in weeks, destroyed it and legally walked off without so much as an apology. Seems BidClerk.com should carry responsibility but got flimsy half assed apology/excuse letter and that was that. Marvin’s Home Improvement Center also should be liable but again, they offered to testify for me but what good is that if I can’t take into court. If anyone knows of anyone who can help I would be eternally and bleed gratitude to you. I would die with the prayer for you in my mouth if you know of any way to help me out of this mess. Not well, I get sicker every day because I am so depressed and live in this environment. Had to sell most of everything I own just to survive. I was told to write to TV Home improvement shows but can’t find any and there’s nothing left to build on or fix. I have all documents and legal papers relating to this disaster and Blueprints and police and state reports. If anyone knows of anything or has suggestion, I would be so thankful to you.
Simply asking for knowledge of available resources for victims of Home Building Fraud. This case has been investigated by all state officials, State Attorney Generals office and Home Builders Licensure Board,
As was put to me, "this wasn’t his 1st rodeo" and criminals like this know more on how to cover themselves than honest people know on uncovering them.
I did all a consumer could have reasonably done with respect of checking. BidClerk.com took responsiblility in saying my job was "mislabled", again, not my fault or to my knowledge. I question those who blame the victims as opposed to the criminals. Could make one wonder about their ethics if they believe any degree of trust in another human is "a mistake". Reflection of their own moral compass.

My husband was taken to a hospital 33 miles from emergency call by ground ambulance and charged 850.00. He was transferred by air 77 miles to Vegas by air ambulance for kidney stone. I am sure this was a case of fraud he was traveling and also on the job and insured, I am sure if he had no insurance he would have been treated and released like he was in Vegas. Kidney stones are com man and he had already traveled 33 miles he was not going to have a heart transplant. If so i would be happy to pay a million i smell a rat medical billing fraud not old news when it comes to air ambulance this should have been approved. He is also from Iran he would have never agreed to go if he was informed about cost. I am sure the hospital could have handled his diagnose. He was in area that had several options in nye county my Research show questionable fraud and will not pay remainder of bill for air ambulance to see insurance candy my husband was working he trains drivers for swift transportation, He was taken Advantage of and pays more than his share in taxes. He should not pick up the tab for ambulance to make a buck to recoup for uninsured patients that they had to medical evacuate. We are already paying a Fortune in insurance. This is discrimination.

Is it car insurance fraud if I was to buy a car but ask my dad to get the insurance and say that he will be driving the car? Just so that the car is drivable. I mean I am always driving my parents cars anyways, and that is not illegal. Or would a better idea be that he can mention me as other drivers of the car? and if so would that affect the premium?

Can the owner of a insurance agency tell his employes how to fill out the mitigation on an insurance quote to get the lowest premiums knowning that the mitigations are false? Also the same company owner is paying the employes commission only and non of the workers are licenced 440 or 220 agents but they are still binding and writing policies arent they suppose to be on an hourly or salary pay? How can I report him? I have questioned him about the falsifying mitigations and he told me that "thats not my problem, thats the inspectors problem because he signs off on the inspections" But that led me to believe that the owner of yhe insurance company knows what going on…what can i do to put a stop to to his posible fraud??

I am trying to get a new car insurance with progressive. They asked me if I had any citations recently (last 3 yrs) and I said no which is not true becuase I just got a citation. My citation was for going 10 miles over the limit. They did ask me for all of my info such as ssn and driver lic #. I am assuming they checked out my records. They gave me a very low quote considering my driving history.
Is it car insurance fraud if I didn’t tell them about my citations?
Could I be dropped?
Please advice.

Religion sells "faith".
the cost of this faith is periodic offerings and rituals; your time and your opinions
by investing in this "faith", Religion guarantees life after death, a sort of "death insurance".
so far religion has been 100% successful, in that no one who has died has come back and claimed FRAUD on their guaranteed death insurance…. what a smart business tactic! promising things to people after they die…
in conlusion, Islam and Christianity are the REAL corporate conglomerates of the world, buying and selling your innocent minds to gain political power and world domination………..or something like that.

My fiance and his ex were legally divorced in December. He said he took her off of his medical coverage shortly after, but I found out recently he never did. This is not only upsetting because he was lying to me, but she has been having multiple appts. and recently have her ovaries removed (all while on his insurance). Now he is removing her. However, won’t he get in some type of trouble for claiming her as a legal dependent even though she wasn’t? Does anyone know how much trouble? Any ideas or advice would be very helpful. Thanks!
