‘don’t Even Think of It’, Warns Insurance Fraud Bureau
UK Life Insurance Companies are becoming so concerned at the amount of false claims that they have issued a reminder to would-be fraudsters of the existence of the Insurance Fraud Bureau (IFB), first launched in 2006.
The life insurance industry is worried that the recent high-profile case of ‘canoeist’ John Darwin may have put ideas in some potential fraudsters’ minds, so is keen to nip any such thoughts in the bud before more people go ‘missing’, presumed dead.
Although originally launched to counter the actions of criminal gangs, the IFB soon added investigation of fake insurance claims to its remit. Technical and corporate affairs executive for the British Insurance Brokers Association (BIBA), Graeme Trudgill insists that fake claims damage everyone as they make insurance more expensive, for which we all pay in the form of increased premiums.
Systems have become much more integrated and with the life industry backing the IFB and providing much access to information, Trudgill says that it is easier to spot potential fraudsters. He concedes that Life Insurance Fraud is becoming a problem, but also claims that because the IFB are better able to investigate that anyone thinking of perpetrating a fraud should think twice.
Extensive modelling has been developed to identify potential frauds, and there are much better procedures at claim level to allow insurers to probe further. Systems introduced since 2006 allow analysis of insurance policies and claims records from all the insurers participating in the scheme, and can highlight any suspicious activity. Basically, the bureau can use insurance companies’ records to compare life insurance claims and assess whether they are likely to be genuine, fraudulent, or perhaps the work of an organised criminal ring.
The IFB is going to extensive lengths to catch fraudsters and methods to determine whether claimants are telling the truth include the use of voice analysis software, which can allegedly pick up subtle changes in a caller’s telephone voice. The computer program will identify any nervousness and alert investigators to a potential fraud. But, that is about all that the IFB will reveal about its methods. All other detection methods are being firmly kept under wraps in case they are compromised by would-be fraudsters.
In the wake of the global credit crunch and the rapid deterioration in life assurance valuations, UK insurers will be doing all they can to weather the storm, and that includes mitigating any potential fraud losses – guaranteeing that any claims will be vehemently policed over the coming year.

Had a court appointed lawyer, he withdrew. Now i had the court bring in a private attorney..” Should i hire?
1. My old court appointed lawyer, withdrew from my case. Do to were not on the same page.
2. Superior court, got me a Private lawyer, who has done many murder cases.
Is this ” Private lawyer” hired by SUperior court, going to work hard for my case. Even tho he is being paid by the state.
2. He filed a motion to get a private investigator, who will get $50 by the hour, (who is underpaid)
Now there is two people being underpaid, im a college student. Not sure on what to do.. I have a clean record, going to court for automobile insurance fraud…
Question is, should i keep this guy and save $$. OR am i putting my whole entire life in jeapordy by not hiring my own private attorney..??
Automobile fraud is not a murder trial so having this criminal lawyer representing your case may be a bit like asking a cardiac surgeon to advise you on a fungal disease on your feet. Sure he can advise you about basic anti-fungal prognosis but this is not his specialty. However, the State appointed lawyer may have other attributes as may be considered as synonymous with seeking advise from a General practitioner. You have the discretion to seek a second opinion from a specialist, albeit, seeking advise from a industrial fraud, insurance fraud specialist lawyer, who will, amongst other expert advise, proffer antecedents and precedents which will ensure that you may have a fist of a fight to fight your case against the Department of Public Prosecutors and the Police.
Since I see that you are a student then I assume then you are not wealthy and therefore you will seek to use the full force of the law, as may be proffered from the legal aid services of the State, and relying almost entirely on your intellectualised wits and you may be lucky in trying to wing your way out of a conviction.
The prima facie cases involving an impovershised student involved in vehicular fraud is often a no win case due, obviously, to the acknowledgement by convention by the State small claims tribunal apparatus, that most paupers, (students) would endeavour to find any shortcuts, by anyway possible so as to obtain a workable roadworthy vehicle.
The court may decide to be lenient and give a lesser charge and sentence in light of your financial circumstances. It may be worth considering accepting the State appointment and forego paying through the nose having a powerfully influential lawyer who may win the case for you but it may be a pyrric victory. Needless to say, your name and reputation may remain untarnished if you do pay for the best defense money can buy. If your future career is dependent upon an unblemished criminal history then I must insist that you do not have fraud as part of your criminal history record.
In light of this perspective I think that you can deduce from the abovementioned points what what should do in view of how this may affect your future professional career aspirations. Need I remind you, government civil services regard fraud as amongst the most unpardonable sins and an automatic DO NOT EMPLOY caveat.
Good luck.
