Last year insurers caught 12,879 cases of insurance fraud, compared to 11,540 in 2017, the center for combating insurance crime CBV announced. The total amount of insurance fraud discovered last year was 82 million euros, compared to 101 million euros in 2017. "It is very difficult to estimate how much fraud is committed in total, but I think we can only see the tip of the iceberg", the VvV spokesperson said. If there is serious fraud or organized crime, for example if someone staged a robbery, the perpetrator will be placed on a list to warn other insurers that this person commits insurance fraud.
