Insurance fraud is a serious crime with serious consequences. It drives up the cost of insurance and repairs, and everyone can benefit from containing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Insurance fraud happens when a person misrepresents or fabricates a claim to receive insurance money to which they are not entitled.
