I have not posted an insurance scammers installment in several weeks so I thought I would bring it back into the fold. One of the cases really gets under my skin because the accused schemed hundreds of thousands of dollars out of elderly people. I don't understand what type of person would committ such acts.
- Louisiana Forgery & Fraud - Tracy E. Antley, 44, was ordered to cease and desist from engaging in the business of insurance and her insurance license was suspended by members of the Department of Insurance Fraud Section. The C&D and summary suspension were served in conjunction with an arrest by the State Police Fraud Unit at the Madison Parish Sheriff's Office in Tallulah. Antley was charged with five counts of forgery and two counts of insurance fraud.
