Insurance fraud steals $80 billion every year!

What is Fraud?
Insurance fraud is when people deceive an insurance company or agent to collect money to which they aren’t entitled. Similarly, insurers and agents also defraud consumers, or even each other. Insurance fraud can either be "hard" or "soft."

Hard Fraud: Someone deliberately fakes an accident, injury, theft, arson or other loss to collect money illegally from the insurance companies. Crooks often act alone, but increasingly, teams or organized crime rings stage large schemes that steal millions of dollars.

Soft Fraud: Normally honest people often tell "little white lies" to insurance companies. Many people think it is just harmless fudging. Soft fraud is a crime, and raises everyone’s insurance costs. Example: car owner inflates a fender bender claim to cover her deductible, or she understates how many miles she drives annually to lower her auto premium… A homeowner inflates the value of their stereo equipment stolen during a robbery… Or a printing business lists fewer employees than it really has in order to pay lower workers compensation premiums.

One of the many ways fraud is detected and put to a stop is through the use of Private Investigators. One of the ways Investigators can find out is by the daily activities of a claimant to determine if they are exaggerating their claim or if it is legitimate.
