Prediction

We expect to see continued growth in 'exaggerated loss' frauds, across both injury and damage claims. This expansion goes hand in hand with the layering of claim related costs. There remains a small, but significant, cohort of claims companies and associated enablers who are deploying a business model concerned only with maximising cost generation, regardless of legitimacy or claimant need. Furthermore, insurance application fraud is growing significantly, explained in part by the ever increasing ease of access to software used in the creation of shallow-faked documentation, which can be created using basic photo editing platforms such as Photoshop.
