Yes insurance scams are the worst! As a bank clerk, I’ve seen customers get hit with some shady stuff. Once, a coworker got a call from someone claiming to be from their insurer, pushing for payment info over the phone is a huge red flag! Common scams include fake car accident claims where someone bumps you on purpose, then blames you, or ghost brokers selling cheap, fake policies online. I almost fell for a too-good-to-be-true health plan once, but checking the agent’s license on the state insurance website saved me. To spot scams, watch for pushy salespeople, sketchy deals, or random calls asking for personal details. Always verify the insurer and document everything like photos, names, anything related to personal stuff first.
