The arrest of an East Palo Alto woman on account of auto insurance fraud has been confirmed yesterday. This news came up at a Bay City news section of a local news website. The 37 year old lady had been accused of filing a fraudulent insurance claim and submitting altered and misleading receipts with regards to a hit-and-run accident that took place in 2004.

Its evident that the loss caused to her vehicle after an accident, was deemed a total loss. In order to prove her right to claim she forwarded altered receipts of vehicle repair and receipts for items nonexistent in her car. The accused is subject to appear in the San Mateo County court on May 9.

I guess you would think as a normal everyday citizen that the insurance companies would fight a bogus claim, I see where it would be very costly for them now that you point out the court costs and attorney fees of trying to prove it being bogus, was not thinking about that. No wonder so many people get away with it. There are probably people out there that are professional scammers of insurance companies, I don't think it is fair that the rest of society has to pay.

Does there come a point that some one becomes uninsurable do to claims filed?
