HOW TO CLAIM INSURANCE?:
1. SETTING FIRE TO THE GARAGE, THE HOUSE, AND OF COURSE THE CAR
It’s incredible how much trouble individuals are willing to put themselves to in order to try insurance fraud, and it’s even more astounding how quickly things deteriorate. Nicolas DiPuma, a resident of Delaware, is one such example.
DiPuma reported that as he was cooking, neighboring coals caught fire, which caused a fire to start on his wood stove. He asserted that he became anxious and tossed the pail of coals, which fell on the backseat of his convertible, out the door. In his haste, he also unintentionally tossed embers over his sofa, he said. It goes without saying that the cops had no trouble accusing him of insurance fraud.
2. IN THE GAS, A SNAKE TANK
Nothing in this insurance claim relates to snakes aboard the plane. For the driver of a 1971 Jaguar E-Type, it seemed like something from a movie, yet it was all real life.
After only a brief trip, he discovered that his luxury automobile wasn’t operating as smoothly as normal and that the engine had overheated. The situation worsened until the automobile would not even turn over. Once there, a technician determined that the automobile had overheated as a result of a snake wrapping itself around the drive-belt pulleys. The mechanic deserves praise for maintaining his composure!
3. A SNAKE TANK IS IN THE GAS
There is no mention of snakes on the plane in this insurance claim. It felt like something from a movie to the driver of a 1971 Jaguar E-Type, yet it was all real life. Only a short distance had been traveled when he noticed that his luxury car wasn’t running as smoothly as usual and that the engine had overheated. The issue grew worse till the car wouldn’t even start. When a mechanic arrived, he found that the snake had wrapped itself around the drive-belt pulleys, causing
the car to overheat. The mechanic should be commended for keeping his cool!
4. SMOKEY DRIVE
Knowing that smoking and pyrotechnics don’t mix is nearly common knowledge. Unfortunately, it appears that the customer of State Insurance Co. salesperson Mike Rowe missed the memo. Rowe has always kept his phone nearby on July 4th because he acquired a client who enjoyed pyrotechnics and was preparing himself for an expensive insurance claim.
Unfortunately, the call was made after his client had packed his trunk with $1,000 worth of pyrotechnics that were intended to be set off in a field. The pyrotechnics in his trunk were set off when he threw his lighted cigarette out the vehicle window, but he never made it to the field.
5. GAS AND BEAUTY SUPPLIES
Very nothing is similar between gasoline and shampoo. They are both liquids, yes, but that’s about it. They are so unlike from one another in terms of their appearance, scent, and even packaging! This does not, however, prevent someone from “accidentally” replacing it.
British insurance company Elephant published a list of the wackiest insurance claims they’ve ever seen. On the list is a woman who mistakenly thought her shampoo bottle was a gas can. She filled her petrol tank with Herbal Essence of the highest quality. At least the automobile smelt fresh, right? However, good luck when you try to start your automobile after that.
