A super shopper, sniper fire, an unknown animal, a phantom driver, and a deer in the shape of a pole were the top five cases of suspected fraud that Manitoba Public Insurance’s Special Investigations Unit investigated over the past year.
MPI released the list of unique fraud cases uncovered by their SIU team, as part of efforts that saved Manitoba ratepayers $15 million dollars in attempted auto frauds this year.
MPI reported closing 3,548 investigations in 2024.
Anyone with information about auto insurance fraud is encouraged to call the MPI TIPS Line at 1-877-985-8477, or submit information online at mpi.mb.ca.
