What An Insurance Fraud Investigator Does?
In their search for the truth and justice, our insurance fraud detectives don’t stop at anything. We are dedicated to gathering strong evidence that reveals false insurance claims in order to defend our customers against dishonest actions. Even while it may initially appear difficult to demonstrate unequivocally that a claim is false, our investigators are trained and tenacious enough to handle the challenge.
PIUK is your dependable partner in the fight against insurance fraud. Our insurance fraud investigators have the knowledge, tools, and tenacity needed to take on even the most difficult cases and get results that matter.
Background Checks
We consider background checks to be an essential first step for our insurance investigators. We go above and beyond the services provided by internet companies, examining various facets of a person’s background to give you a thorough and in-depth report. Our comprehensive background checks cover the following things:
Working History:
Our detectives examine the person’s employment history, closely examining the specifics of their past employment, absences from the workforce, and background in their field of expertise.
Insurance Claims in the Past:
Our background checks must take into account previous insurance claims since they could reveal patterns of behaviour that are questionable or recurrent.
Personal Background:
We thoroughly investigate each person’s past, including their date of birth, educational background, prior residences, marital status, number of children, and any previous divorces.
Criminal History:
To evaluate a person’s integrity and reliability, our detectives thoroughly review court appearances, outcomes, jail terms, and any other relevant criminal history.
In today’s always-connected society, social media can be a useful tool for determining someone’s sincerity and reliability. Our detectives use social media sites to find out more details that can help them create a convincing defence against false accusations.
A thorough background investigation might offer crucial clues about someone’s integrity and responsibility. We assist in locating any warning signs and trends that can raise suspicion by looking at their prior behaviour and insurance history.
We recognise the importance of speedy resolution of insurance issues. Because of this, we frequently finish background checks within 24 to 48 hours. Our results are presented in thorough reports, enabling you to decide on the best course of action for your situation.
Collaboration and communication are top priorities at PIUK. We go over the guidelines and standards with you before starting any background check to make sure our research satisfies your unique requirements and goals.
Insurance Claims Investigator
Insurance Fraud Investigators
We offer surveillance services to help detect insurance fraud, both to insurance companies and the public. This kind of fraud is one of the most common crimes committed in the UK, with many people falsely believing that there are no victims.
The truth is, with over a billion pounds worth of false claims made in the UK every year and an estimated further 20% going undetected, insurance fraud hurts everyone.
At Private Investigations UK, we are dedicated to limiting the damage that rogue claimants can inflict. Give us a call on 0800 002 9858 to discuss how we can help you uncover insurance fraud.
Additional Techniques Applied by an Insurance Fraud Investigator
Our private investigators work together with other companies, such as phone service providers, making use of technologies such as vehicle tracking and covert cameras. In addition to conducting comprehensive background checks, our detectives will also:
• Monitor the Subject via conducting surveillance
• Speak with witnesses
• Collect and validate evidence
• Use profiling methods
• Make use of algorithm analysis and digital analytics
• Examine damaged property, cars, and structures
• Collaborate with other parties that are involved, such as the police
Proving the Fraud:
In many instances, injuries incurred as a consequence of a collision are not as severe as they are claimed to be since the injuries were caused by injuries sustained while driving. The purpose of the insurance fraud investigator’s work is to demonstrate this by accumulating evidence throughout the course of additional insurance fraud investigations. Investigations into insurance fraud attempt to look deeper than what is shown on the surface of a claim and report their findings to the insurance company. The sheer existence of an insurance fraud investigator is seen by the industry as a deterrent in and of itself.
Planned Accidents:
We fight the threat of manufactured accidents with vigilance. Honest road users are significantly threatened by fraudsters who engineer collisions to take advantage of insurance systems. To find fraudulent schemes, our knowledgeable Insurance Fraud Investigators use surveillance, in-depth background checks, and intuition. We defend innocent victims and uphold the honesty of the insurance business by exposing the truth behind manufactured incidents. We prevent scammers and make sure that everyone travels on safer roads by taking a proactive approach and working together.
Bogus Insurance:
The threat posed by fake motor insurance firms is continuously pursued by our Insurance Fraud Investigators. These dishonest businesses buy valid insurance, but they falsify the paperwork before offering it to unwary clients. We expose these dishonest practices through thorough investigations, protecting clients from monetary damages and subsequent legal repercussions. Our commitment protects the integrity and trust of the insurance sector.
WHO SUFFERS FROM FRAUDULENT INSURANCE CLAIMS?
There is no such thing as a victimless crime, and insurance fraud is no exception. The most obvious victims of this type of fraud are the insurance companies themselves. If someone makes a false claim, they are forced to either payout or undergo an expensive legal process to challenge the claim in court.
In addition to this, insurance companies have to drive up their premiums to cover the cost of fraudulent claims and the associated legal expenses. False claimants, even if unsuccessful, indirectly make insurance more expensive for everyone.
Innocent parties involved in the claim often suffer the most. If you have a claim against your insurance, your insurance company will see you as a greater risk, and your premiums will almost always go up. If you weren’t actually at fault, the claim could damage your reputation without cause, and you will find yourself overpaying for insurance, possibly for decades.
If you think you’ve been the victim of insurance fraud, please get in touch with us to see how we can help.
Personal Injury
Personal Injury Fraud
Personal injury insurance covers an individual for loss of earnings associated with temporary injuries and permanent, life-changing injuries. In addition to this, employers in the UK must have liability insurance, which protects their employees if they get illnesses and injuries caused by working for the business. They might also choose to take out public liability insurance, which covers members of the public visiting their business.
Both of these types of injury insurance are subject to abuse and fraud. False claimants will either grossly exaggerate the extent of their injuries or fabricate them entirely in an attempt to get a payout. We can conduct surveillance on suspicious claimants to help you prove that they’re being dishonest about their injuries.
Road Accidents and Crash for Cash
Car Insurance Fraud
In the UK, it’s a legal requirement to have third-party car insurance. This law means you must be insured to cover the cost of the damage to someone else’s vehicle or property in a traffic accident. People will sometimes claim that they weren’t at fault in the accident, even though they were, in an attempt to get a payout from the other person’s insurance.
Some people will even deliberately cause minor crashes with the intent of making an insurance claim. A common strategy in these ‘crashes for cash’ is for a driver to slow down suddenly in front of another vehicle, causing a collision. They will often claim for personal injury, as well as damage to the car.
If someone has made a claim against your insurance for an accident that wasn’t your fault, we can help you. Whether it’s an opportunistic road traffic claim or a deliberate crash for cash, we can conduct surveillance on the other party to collect intelligence about them. Things we can find out that might be helpful to your case include:
- Their Usual Driving Habits
- Their Associates
- Proof That They're Fabricating Their Injuries
All the evidence we gather is collated into a professional, court-admissible report. To start the process today, please get in touch with us.
Burglary and Theft
Home and Contents Fraud
Many people have contents insurance for their home or business, which usually covers them for the theft of items in a burglary. Some people will stage a burglary by getting an associate to break in and ‘steal’ their possessions and then claim on their insurance. They will either sell these items and claim replacements or keep the things and claim for cash. They might also claim for items they never owned in the first place.
In our experience, it’s helpful to conduct surveillance when investigating these cases. We can find out about the claimant’s associates and potentially even get evidence of the ‘stolen’ goods being handed over.
Other Claims
Stamping Out Fraud
We also investigate claims against product liability, professional indemnity, business interruption, and travel insurance policies. If the type of claim you want to investigate is not listed, please don’t hesitate to call 0800 002 9858 for professional advice and a free consultation.
