Central Valley Business Times: "A man and a woman have been arrested on charges of staging automobile accidents and filing insurance claims for medical treatment they falsely claimed to have received in other countries.
'I am committed to fighting fraud wherever we find it … this investigation extended all the way to Sri Lanka,” says California Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner.
The Department of Insurance has accused Ron Ranasingh of conspiring with others in staging three vehicle accidents that between February 2003 and September 2004. After each accident, Mr. Ranasingh and others submitted tens of thousands of dollars in false insurance claims, the department says.
Agents with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security tracked down addresses listed on fake bills submitted for chiropractor offices in Sri Lanka, New Delhi and Hong Kong to find they weren't chiropractic offices at all, according to the state."
