Contrived
Accidents
The
most common types of insurance fraud are:
- Bogus claims
- Exaggerated losses
- Fraudulent devices used to support an otherwise genuine claim.
C and L Investigations' fraud investigators work alongside
insurance companies' fraud specialists by providing assistance in
investigating and repudiating claims.
At C and L Investigations, we can advise on and investigate
whether a claim has been sufficiently exaggerated to amount to a
fraudulent claim.
We can either arrange or advise on further investigations that may
be required to enable a successful defence of a claim on the grounds
of fraud.
The cost of fraud to the insurance industry varies according to
the organisation providing the figures but what is certain is that
it is a sum measured in £ billions.
Fraudulent motor claims typically involve:
- A "phantom" road traffic accident
- A contrived accident
- Exaggerated damage to a vehicle or person
- Non-existent passengers who subsequently make a claim for damages
The fraud teams at C and L Investigations work together
and use their considerable experience of investigating such claims
to obtain the following:
- Detailed engineering evidence in relation to vehicle damage.
- Full witness statements and detailed plans and supporting photos
with full computer generated reconstructions.
- Investigation in to previous medical and personnel notes and records.
- Our own medical experts and evidence to consider the malingering
claimant.
- Intelligence checks" in the form of our own advanced data
base DVLA searches, the electoral role and company searches.
- Discreet surveillance.
