Insurance
fraud costs you money
You may believe only insurance companies should be worried about
insurance fraud. But it's a crime that costs you money, too. According
to the Pennsylvania Insurance Fraud Prevention Authority, insurance
fraud costs the nation $160 billion annually that's $600 per
year for every man, woman, and child in the United States. Fraud
inflates the cost of each consumer's insurance premium by $200
to $300 per year.
Insurance fraud is intentionally lying to or misleading an insurance
company about a claim by providing false estimates for repairs,
submitting "doctored" receipts, intentionally creating damage,
or faking an injury.
If you suspect someone is committing insurance fraud, you may

In Pennsylvania, you may call the Insurance Fraud Prevention Authority
at 1-888-565-IFPA.
