Pity the insurance companies haven't caught on to this. From what I've
seen, if your stolen car is found to be burnt out they automatically
think you've done an insurance job.
In the most recent case I've heard about from a friend they even
wanted access to his mobile phone records (who did he call and when)
to try and figure out what went on behind the scenes.
