By "questionable" Bureau classifies those cases where it refers to an insurance company having suspicions regarding a claimed loss. Each call can be supported by various studies (seven).
The most common fraud is associated with damage by glass car, as well as reimbursement for the evacuation of the vehicle. The increase from 2009 for these two types of "questionable" cases was 450 and 116 percent respectively!
