People think of insurance fraud as a victimless crime when, in fact, honest policyholders end up being victimized. Most insurance companies base their rates on the cost of doing business. When costs go up because of fraudulent claims, other customers end up paying the price. People need to be aware of fraud and be willing to report it when they suspect it.
