Fraud bureaus are state agencies that detect, investigate
and prevent insurance scams. All bureaus invite citizens to phone
in hot tips about suspected scams. Some bureaus also let you report
scams from their websites.
Most fraud bureaus deal with all kinds of insurance fraud, but some
investigate only certain kinds, such as workers compensation or
auto insurance.
