Road to Fraud Detection

Detecting auto insurance fraud can feel like a never ending road, with an
increasing number of twists and turns that insurers need to navigate.

Quote Manipulation
Applicants manipulate details at the point
of quote to fraudulently reduce policy price.

Ghost Broker
Individuals or groups that set up policies for others while deliberately
misrepresenting themselves as a broker, agent or insurer. Ghost brokers
often target vulnerable communities or students looking for cheaper
insurance. The victims are left un- or under-insured, often only finding
out when they try to make a claim.

Policy Fraud
Application fraud used to reduce the cost of insurance through
misinformation or misrepresentation. Policy fraud at times can include
identity theft.

Insider / Employee Fraud


Employees have a deeper understanding of internal processes and
thresholds. This knowledge can help organized fraudsters operate
without setting off alerts.

Paper Fraud
A criminal reports a collision that never occurred, often involving vehicles
that were previously damaged and sometimes involving fake injury claims.

Staged Collision
Fraudsters stage or deliberately cause an accident with unsuspecting drivers
in order to make false insurance claims, commonly termed ‘Crash for Cash’.
Jump-ins may also be reported as part of staged collisions.

Claims Padding
Claimants inflate and embellish insurance claims. This is an extremely
common crime, involving claiming for more than the actual loss.

Medical
Billing Fraud
Examples may include
submitting claims for services
not provided, falsifying claims
Supplier Fraud and misrepresentation.
Insurance supply chain professionals
including lawyers, towing companies,
medical providers and body shops can be
complicit in submitting and progressing
fraudulent claims.
