How do I set my car on fire for insurance money?
I need cash fast. Thought I'd get it through my insurance. Is there a way to burn a car for insurance money and get away with it?

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
“Under no circumstances should you purposely set your car on fire for insurance money. This is insurance fraud. Depending on where you live, this is punishable by up to five years in prison, suspension of your driving privileges, and/or a hefty fine.
While trying to trick your insurance company may seem like a way to get money quick, it’s not worth the risk. Car insurance companies deal with countless claims and are experts at sniffing out lies. With a claims adjuster and police on the case, getting away with fraud is highly unlikely.
If you want to save some cash, you still have other alternatives, although you’re also going to need some patience. With the

app, you can compare quotes from over 45 insurers to save money each month. This approach is a much better decision and will help you avoid any legal matters.”View full answer
