A Rising Tide of automobile insurance Scams
Ferro Christopher Officer Nassau County Police Department, said its first case of auto insurance card fraud was about four years, when he and his partner, John Tymeck officer, called the 800 number on the back a map of hands by a driver while another routine traffic stop. What she has achieved, an officer said Ferro, a pay-by-the-minute sex.
They found that the car had Pennsylvania drives, and in the coming months, where they face more and more cars, Pennsylvania, with fake insurance.
The problem was a time, but still about a year and half. Officer of Ferro and his new partner, Officer Michael Ruggiero, said she had more than 40 arrests for auto insurance arglistiger documents in the last 18 months in the area of new Cassel. In the eastern part of Suffolk County, Dale Faro Investigator of the New York State Police said there were at least 20 of these arrests over the past six weeks.
”It is now much more widespread in Long Island, and all jaillie suddenly in the East End in a big march, Faro Investigator”a said. He added that the State Guard was alerted to fraud for insurance cards cars with plates and Pennsylvania to be looking for slabs of Pennsylvania, which has no label on them.
The Investigator Faro, if labels are not on the plate, a cavalry soldier has justified reason to stop the vehicle.
If this is not the expiry date stickers, or if the label or an inscription is forged and not on the necessary hologram on it, the driver was then arrested and may be up to three crimes.
False identity cards of insurance are sold for $ 300 to $ 500, Officer of Ferro, less than half the cost of an insurance policy legitimate.
Some people know exactly what they buy, but others do not, “said Investigator Faro. ”They think they could drive to New York for one year,”he said and added that the authorities see fraudsters North Carolina as well.
Melissa Laughlin, a spokesman for State Farm Insurance, said Fake-card fraud war”ein become a growing problem in Long Island”und”war widespread.”
But nobody knows exactly how widespread the problem. No separate statistics for this type of arrests in Nassau or Suffolk Counties, and a spokesman for the New York State Insurance Department said that statistics relating to insurance fraud were not required for Long Island.
Officer of Ferro, said insurance fraud costs people of New York was millions of dollars. In a car accident two with a pilot insurance fraudulent documents, drivers uninsured portion of self-insurance makes the Settings tab. But Officer of Ferro said that a pedestrian was taken by a car driven by an uninsured motorist, the victim - or his health insurance, if ever - for payment of hospital bills.
Investigator Faro, said false insurance cards can not be produced on computers.
The map”insurance is regarded as a quantity of fake ID’s,”he said. You scannen”in a valid insurance card. Once scanned, they change the information on the computer screen, political figures, data problem, then print any number of Einsen, because the base there. You can use the policy number, date, modify, has issued, change the vehicle identification number, more or less the same as on a false driving licence.”
The link seems PA comes from the fact that a car can be registered without proof of insurance. For a car in New York State, you need a temporary insurance card, the title of the car and identification as a driving licence. Insurance companies issuing policy of the State of New York, but not in Pennsylvania and North Carolina are also required, the Department of Motor Vehicles, if a vehicle is not registered properly insured, or if insurance is in force.
Le”Department of Motor Vehicles automatically suspends the licenses and registration of the car and the driver of the vehicle, which makes it easier for police to implement this part of the vehicle and road transport law, ‘ ‘Officer of Ferro said.
