Modern Vehicle Insurance Fraud: Detection and Investigation Strategies Webinar Recording

As technology in vehicles continues to evolve, the ways in which fraud may appear in auto insurance claims also change. But insurance professionals can leverage those same advances to address concerns that could emerge during their review process.
To stay aware of how event data recorders, infotainment systems, and other technological equipment influence claims validation and processing, request the recording of Alpine Intel’s webinar, Modern Vehicle Insurance Fraud: Detection and Investigation Strategies.
Curtis Whitfill, VRC Investigations vice president of SIU compliance and CE programs, and Steven Tuskan, Mecanica senior forensic consultant, will lead the presentation. Curtis has more than 30 years of experience in the criminal investigation and claims management industry. Steven has spent more than four decades in the transportation industry, including roles with fleet operations, manufacturing, vehicle testing, accident investigation and reconstruction, and forensic consulting.

Other subjects include:
- Identification of possible red flags that may raise questions in claims related to modern vehicles
