    They did it to their own luxury cars, and even provided video tape because apparently they thought they did a good job.

    They clearly did not.

    I assumed it was vandalism, not insurance fraud. I guess it’s easier to get away with slashing tyres looking like a human than as a dubious bear.

    I’m struggling to see how this scam is actually supposed to work - if your car sustains damage, wouldn’t your insurance just cover the cost to repair that damage, meaning you are just back at square one?

      I think once the check is cut the car is never fixed. Instead you find an unscrupulous body shop willing to fabricate an invoice for the insurance company for a share of the payout.

        I guess you’d still have a scratched car at that point, though. Maybe you need to combine it with a dishonest repair shop massively inflating the bill, along with an insurance company that doesn’t pay enough attention.
