True Crime & Insurance Fraud Number 35 

https://zalma.com/blog

Fraud knows no boundaries. It matters not at all where the person comes  from. It matters only that the person has a felonious heart.   Khlaed Amir Fahlavi, born in Tehran, raised in Liverpool, England, and a  resident of Los Angeles, California, USA, had such a mind. He lived in  London and Los Angeles. He earned a living making claim on British and  American insurers. It surprised him how easy it was to commit fraud.   

Khlaed\\u2019s life of crime started innocently enough. At Heathrow  International Airport, outside London he dropped a few extra pound coins  into a machine and purchased a travel policy from the machine. Although  the trip was uneventful, he tested the policy by reporting the loss of  one bag. With a minimum of effort Khaled received a \\xa31,200 check. An  insurance criminal was born.  On his next trip to London Khaled found two policemen waiting outside  his parents\\u2019 flat on Half Moon Street. They arrested him on the spot,  tried him at the Old Bailey and sentenced him to three years in jail for  defrauding the English and North American.   With knowledge of the English trial, the Los Angeles District Attorney  filed criminal charges against the administrators, chiropractors and  therapists at Khaled\\u2019s clinics and confiscated $500,000 in cash and  assets gained from his fraud activities.   Khaled served his time. He did not dare return to California where  multiple counts of insurance fraud, mail fraud and tax evasion awaited  him.  Khaled now operates the cash register at the gift shop of the Hard Rock  Cafe - London, on Piccadilly where he earns 3 pounds per hour.  \\xa9 2022 \\u2013 Barry Zalma  B arry Zalma, Esq., CFE, now limits his practice to service as an  insurance consultant specializing in insurance coverage, insurance  claims handling, insurance bad faith and insurance fraud almost equally  for insurers and policyholders.  He practiced law in California for more than 44 years as an insurance  coverage and claims handling lawyer and more than 54 years in the  insurance business.  Subscribe to \\u201cZalma on Insurance\\u201d at https://zalmaoninsurance.locals.com/subscribe and \\u201cExcellence in Claims Handling\\u201d at https://barryzalma.substack.com/welcome.   You can contact Mr. Zalma at https://www.zalma.com, https://www.claimschool.com,  zalma@claimschool.com and zalma@zalma.com .
