VIGILANCE BY ONE insurance company has saved it from being caught up in the car loan scam now under investigation by police.
Sun General Insurance has revealed that earlier this year it cancelled the policies of a woman named to be a recipient of a loan for a fictitious vehicle.
The company took that action out of concern over the woman’s accident record and circumstances surrounding the theft of a Toyota Rav4. That vehicle was reported stolen about six months ago and to date has not been recovered.
The claim was not paid.
“We drew a connection between the stolen Rav4 and the lady involved with the fictitious car and took action,” said Sun General general manager Davis Browne. “We did our investigation and were still not satisfied with the circumstances.”
