Question About Questions

For me I guess it would depend on who this 'someone' is and how you feel about the relationship.

:)

Well, are you likely to turn them into the authorities/fraud squad?
What evidence besides their say so have you got?
Just reply with "Too much information! I don't want to know about it.".
And since you now know what kind of person they are (either liars or criminals) - watch your back and don't be too chummy with them.

I'd probably tell them not to tell me any more about it and let it go. I would not want to be caught up in all that personally.

Call the insurance company and collect the reward LOL! Seriously.... We all pay through the nose because of fraud in any line of work or need we have from sue happy people that can't accept that mistakes happen to people that defraud others.

you tell them give you half or your reporting them,...lol.......i'm kidding BUT I believe if you do believe its wrong and its weighing on your conscience for reporting them I believe you get a portion of the money.....although if its not weighing on your conscience and you don't think its horrible...let it go....I would probably let it go unless i thought they were horrible people

Because the guilt is eating away at them, and they needed to confess to someone.

You have three options
1. Notify the insurance company anonymously about the fraud
2. Advise that person to come clean with the insurance company and return the money
3. Do nothing

Insurance fraud is illegal and the consequences can be sever. If they are telling you, they are most likely telling others, it will be found out. I would be concerned about being considered an accessory after the fact if I knew and I didn't do anything. Fourth option, consult with an attorney and find out what your legal obligation are.

Dang, these are the people that drive my insurance rates up. Grrrrr.

On that note...

God Bless
{so praying to not think evil thoughts about that person right now}

I know right!! My friends husband told me he cheated on her and it was with her sister AND friend.

WTH am i supposed to do with that?

Hi Penny,

I would say, "Easy come, easy go, your karma will pay you back, while the insurance company makes up for people like you with higher rates for us all, I hope you're proud you're a criminal and joined that club." Slime bucket people with little conscious need to be told to their face. Being nice is going along with the crime, call it out. On another note, desperation leads moral people to do immoral things and unfortunately our economy has forced many good people in compromising positions.

Get it off your chest as well,
Wendy

People tell you their secrets because they feel guilty and feel better once they have shared their "misdeed" with someone. Unless you have proof of the alleged "fraud", just forget about it. If you have tangible proof - and are happy to end the relationship with this individual - then tell the authorities. Either way, I hope you can feel good about the decision you make. Best wishes and good luck!

Ask them what they're Purchasing me to keep they're "secret" ;-) JK

Keep that information to yourself.......... too late you just shared it w/ all of us!

Depends on 'who' this person is in my life.

So, ask them: "Why are you telling me this?" Then wait for the answer. That will tell you if they are bragging/lying or riddled with guilt.

If they are bragging, report them. If they are lying, ignore them and do not listen to anything else. If they are guilt-ridden, encourage them to come clean. Then report them.

I agree with those who say that insurance fraud costs us all, and I absolutely resent paying for people who cheat and steal.

I am not a "don't tell me, TMI" sort of person - I can't put my head in the sand if there is evidence of a crime or fraud being committed.
