Akash Sharma is one man who decided that it was time to make the insurance companies pay. Using different names, he swindled the ICICI Lombard General Insurance Company to the tune of several lakhs of rupees before being found out and arrested.But the icing on the cake of this fraud was that not only did he take out policies under different names, he also created a fictitious hospital to manufacture the papers required for a mediclaim. Imagine the shock of the vigilance official from ICICI Lombard who went to track down a Sympathy Hospital in Indira Puram in Ghaziabad (UP) only to find a three-storey house in its place.Akash’s scam was almost perfect. He had it all planned down to the last letterhead for 'Sympathy Hospital’ and the ‘pathology reports’ to buttress his claims. What he failed to account for was the vigilance checks carried out by the insurance company.“Initially we never suspected anything because the amount in the claims was always under Rs 50000. Had he made a big claim, he would have been put through greater checks and would have been required to submit more document.
