Introducing the Dirty Dozen: 12 fraudsters enter the Hall of Shame
Fraudsters never seem to run out of pathetic schemes to perpetrate insurance fraud and the Coalition Against Insurance Fraud has inducted 12 new entrants into the 2023 Hall of Shame.
Insurance fraud siphons off a staggering $308.6 billion annually, according to the Coalition’s study, and this scourge not only drives up premiums for honest Americans, but it also inflicts physical harm upon those who fall prey to the fraudsters they once trusted. Each year, the Hall of Shame shines a light on wrongdoers who thought they could get away with defrauding insurers but didn’t.
Recognizing these individuals helps to galvanize public opinion against insurance fraud and their cases illustrate the real-life consequences of fraudulent activities, fostering a collective determination to combat this pervasive problem. These schemers have all faced the consequences of their actions, and their stories highlight that fraud investigators and prosecutors are unwavering in their pursuit of justice.
