Allianz Uncovers £9.3 Million in Fraud: Why Surveillance is a Vital Tool for Insurers

A new report from Allianz UK reveals a startling reality for the insurance industry: fraud is a relentless and costly problem. The insurer successfully uncovered £9.3 million in fraud during the first half of 2025 alone, with a significant portion of this total attributed to fraudulent injury claims. This figure highlights the enormous financial drain caused by dishonest claims and underscores the critical need for a proactive and professional investigative response.
Fraudulent injury claims—where claimants exaggerate or fabricate an injury to secure a payout—pose a unique challenge. They are difficult to detect through documentation alone, as the claimants often present a convincing facade of disability. This is where covert surveillance becomes an indispensable tool for legal and insurance teams.
Leveraging Surveillance to Expose the Truth
At Conflict International, we understand that evidence is the key to defeating fraudulent claims. Our professional surveillance services are designed to provide irrefutable, court-admissible evidence that can prove or disprove a claimant's stated physical limitations.
Our expert teams, comprised of operatives with extensive backgrounds in law enforcement and intelligence, conduct discreet, ethical, and legal surveillance. They document a claimant's activities, such as:
- A claimant who reports being unable to walk without assistance is observed jogging or performing strenuous activities.
- An individual claiming a back injury is seen carrying heavy shopping bags or engaging in manual labor.
- A person with a supposed neck injury is observed driving a car for long distances without discomfort.
This concrete evidence, delivered in detailed reports with video and photographic proof, is crucial for insurers to successfully challenge a claim, avoid paying out millions in fraudulent funds, and protect their clients.
Securing Your Assets and Reputation
Beyond the immediate financial savings, uncovering fraudulent claims also protects a company's reputation and integrity. By actively combating fraud, insurers send a strong message that they will not tolerate dishonesty, which helps deter future attempts.
