Well I believe I have been the victim of insurance fraud…. yee haw. Let me give you a little background. I’m in the process of buying a new house. In trying to find homeowners insurance for the new pad, I found out that someone filed a theft claim against my previous homeowner’s policy. Not knowing what the heck was going on I called my previous insurance company. Apparently, the lender that I had my previous mortgage with made a claim against MY insurance. They claim that items were missing from the house (BTW we gave the house back to the bank). My wife and I recall a conversation about a year ago with our prior mortgage company about the items in question. We told them that the items weren’t missing, we had them. We explained to them that the items in question were never a “part” of the house and that we purchased them seperately. Therefore we took them with us. Now a year later I find out that they filed a theft claim against my insurance.
Needless to say, I am pissed about it.
So far, I haven’t made much head way in the problem. I am currently waiting a week for the company who made the claim to dig my files out of their archives. I may still have some recourse, but right now I just don’t know. So, most likely, I will be unloading here for a while until this issue is resolved. Look forward to more rants and raves against the EVIL INSURANCE EMPIRE.
