Police: Beware insurance fraud

The News Leader - www.newsleader.com - Staunton, Va.: "The Virginia State Police are encouraging Virginians to plan ahead and be prepared for potential disasters during hurricane season and to take steps to guard against fraudsters, cheaters and crooks who often show up during a storm's aftermath.

According to a recent press release from the organization, insurance fraud costs Virginians more than $200 a year in increased premiums and increases the costs of everyday purchases by $200 to $1,000 a year."
