Anybody been cash for crash scammed?
The wifey had a fender bender this afternoon on a 50 limit A road. car in front of car in front stopped suddenly.
Wife’s car crashes into car in front of her.
Car at the front drives off.
Here’s the odd bit, chap who wife crashed into looks like he’s not going to stop either. Then does stop but as he can’t see any damage to either car, doesn’t want to exchange details, but does reluctantly. Also says that he hit the car in front of him. So why did it drive off.
All most odd. Clearly she should have left enough space so this isn’t a question about is she at fault for hitting the chap in front of her.
I can’t help thinking it feels like a classic cash for crash, right up until there bit where the guy in front doesn’t get out of the car holding his neck and screaming whiplash injury and demanding insurance details.
Maybe he is genuinely a laid back guy. But still doesn’t really explain why the car in front didn’t stop. And if it is cash for crash what is their strategy, to report the Reg number and claim that the person who hit them just drove off.
