Auto Fraud – New Jersey
Amount: $5,512.98
A New Jersey man pleaded guilty to two counts of second-degree insurance fraud for paying to have parts removed from his motorcycle and then filing claims, stating that the parts had been stolen. He paid a shop to remove the parts, filed a claim with his insurance carrier, and four days later instructed the shop to put the parts back on. He was paid $5,512.98 by the carrier. He tried the same scam again five months later, but the carrier did not pay the claim. The state is recommending a three year sentence; sentencing is set for August 22.
