3. What are the behaviors of insurance fraud?

There are five ways of insurance fraud:

(1) The property applicant deliberately fabricated the subject matter of insurance to defraud the insurance money.

The subject matter of insurance refers to the material wealth and related interests, human life, health or related interests as the subject matter of insurance. Deliberately fabricating the subject matter of insurance refers to deliberately fabricating the non-existent subject matter of insurance when concluding an insurance contract with the insurer. I thought I would fabricate an insurance accident to defraud the insurance money in the future.

(2) The applicant, the insured or the beneficiary fabricates false reasons or exaggerates the loss of the insured accident to defraud the insurance money. As stipulated in the insurance contract, the insurer is only liable for the insured accident caused by the reasons within the scope of insurance liability, and the applicant, the insured or the beneficiary conceals the real reasons of the insured accident or falsely claims that the reasons not within the scope of insurance liability are the reasons within the scope of insurance liability to defraud the insurance money; Causing losses to an insured accident that has occurred. Then deliberately exaggerate the degree of loss to defraud the extra insurance money.

(3) The applicant, the insured or the beneficiary fabricates an insurance accident that has never happened to defraud the insurance money.

(4) The applicant or the insured intentionally causes an insurance accident that causes property losses and defrauds the insurance money. This refers to man-made insurance accidents during the insurance contract, resulting in property losses, in order to defraud insurance money.

(5) The applicant or beneficiary intentionally causes the death, disability or illness of the insured to defraud the insurance money. This refers to the act of deliberately using illegal means to defraud insurance money and create compensation conditions in personal insurance, resulting in casualties or diseases of the insured. If the actor commits one of the above five acts and defrauds a large amount of insurance money, it constitutes the crime of insurance fraud.

The purpose of medical insurance is to protect China citizens from medical treatment, not to defraud criminals of insurance money. Once this behavior occurs, it will be considered as fraud. According to the nature of the case and the amount of fraud, the criminal suspect is punished differently. The state resolutely cracked down on such illegal acts.
