Agreed!
It was suggested to me in the washed phone thread that I claim on my insurance for the phone concerned..I wonder how many would have made a false claim to the police to get the reference number so they can claim for a 'stolen' phone on the insurance?
I have had such suggestions made about my no fault car crash in 2003 and when our wall was damaged by the council last year about over egging about damage to me and my property.In fact my husband wanted me to over do(over act)the mild necklash injuries I had to the doctor so as to raise the claim...tsk,tsk.
I of course refuse to go down that avenue.
So I hope that those found out are given very strong sentences by the courts because it is time to nip this attitude in the bud.
