A fraudster who made false insurance claims to Hertfordshire County Council about potholes damaging her Porsche has been sentenced. Carly Andrews, aged 26 from Hemel Hempstead, was accused of submitting a fake invoice for work to support her damage claim against the council in March 2019. She made a claim stating that her Porsche Cayenne was damaged by a pothole at Cherry Tree Lane, Hemel Hempstead. An invoice falsely appearing to be from a local garage for the damage, and an eBay screenshot of Alloy Wheels, was then sent to the county council to claim a £1,200 pay out. County council staff became suspicious of the invoice and referred it to the Hertfordshire Shared Anti-Fraud Service to investigate.

A man who fraudulently used care payments meant for his dead mum has been jailed for four months.
Adam Bisland, of Hillcrest in Stevenage, was sentenced last week after pleading guilty to 10 counts of fraud back in October.
In August 2019, finance officers at Hertfordshire County Council identified that a card used to pay for social care for an elderly woman had been used after she had died to buy items including clothes and a mobile phone.
An investigation carried out by The Shared Anti-Fraud Service on behalf of the council found fraudulent transactions made with the card totalled £1,409 between April and May 2019. The investigation found the woman’s son, 36-year-old Bisland, had made the purchases.
