'Cash for crash' ring nabbed
17 June 2008
Forty people will go to court this week charged with taking part in so-called “cash for crash” scams.
The accused are said to have deliberately caused accidents by braking hard in front of innocent drivers, who are then deemed to be at fault. The fraudulent gang then submit invoices for vehicle damages and make personal injury claims to insurance companies.
Most of the cons are said to have taken place around Luton.
