Application fraud This occurs when applicants lie about the type of car they have, existing damage, the address where the car is garaged, or the number of miles driven per year. 3. Staged accidents Staged accidents occur when thieves create a situation that results in a car accident. The thief files a claim against the policyholder and squeezes money out of the car insurance company for fraudulent physical damage and bodily injury claims. 4. Inflated vehicle repairs If a Pennsylvania body shop increases an estimate for unnecessary repairs, it is fraud. Also, some windshield companies file fraudulent claims for unnecessary windshield repairs or window replacements. 5. Dumping Dumping occurs when a policyholder willingly engages in getting rid of a car, and then they report it stolen to the insurance company, hoping it will be declared a total loss.
