Following the recession, bankruptcy filings were at record highs wherein many policyholders cried poverty to be relieved of their debts. To do so, the policyholder swore he or she had insufficient income and owned few or limited assets.

Come learn how this effective and underutilized tool should be part of every special investigator’s arsenal for combating fraud.
