We need to face the facts now. This virus is taking a toll on everyone. People have lost jobs and money is tighter these days. Some industries have been hit harder than others. In a bad economy, there are more fraud attempts ranging from faked to exaggerated injuries and damages. People try to find a way to make money in other ways. For example, people are staying out longer on worker’s compensation claims. A toe injury becomes a leg injury. During tough times it is not hard for a person that is not honest to find a reason to commit fraud.
From what we are hearing in the media, this is only half-time with this recession. According to Strategiccfo.com, Donald Cressy set forth three (3) factors that are present in every situation of fraud. It is called the “Fraud Triangle”:
- Pressure – The need for committing fraud (ex. – the need for money, etc.)
- Rationalization – the mindset of the fraudster that justifies them to commit the fraud. (ex. – times are tough)
- Opportunity – the situation that enables fraud to occur (often when internal controls are weak or non-existent).

Now is the time to put our 30+ years of Adjusting, Insurance Investigation, and General Private Investigating experience into play. We are ready to go wherever the assignment takes us. We just finished a Product Liability case in Port Chester, NY that needed a “boots on the ground” look at what had happened. Photographs had been sent in by the claimant, however, they were not sufficient for what the company needed to decide if their product was at fault for the damages. So they contacted us. We went in-person to assess the situation, take photographs, test the product ourselves and were able to supply the proper information to the company so they could make a fair judgment on how to handle the case and correctly determine the damage and the liability involved. No company wants to pay for exaggerated damages. Adjusters depend on accurate and timely assessments to make the correct decisions.
Car accident in Hempstead, NY? We can help. Slip and fall in Forest Hills, Queens? We can handle that for you. Product Liability in New York City? We are on it. Worker’s Compensation surveillance in Westchester County? No problem. How about a Liability Surveillance in Glastonbury, CT? We can take care of that for you as well.
