£1,000,000 ‘Crash for cash’ Burnley brothers jailed
Rezwan Javed Published on Thursday 15 September 2011 16:30 Two brothers at the heart of one of the country’s biggest ever “crash for cash” scams have been jailed. Rezwan Javed and his older brother Rehan each benefited by about £1m. from the scam. Rezwan Javed (34) and Rehan Javed (36), both of Dovedale Close, Burnley, Lancashire, were found guilty after a trial at Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court of conspiracy to defraud and possession of an article for use in fraud. Rezwan Javed was sentenced to six years in prison and Rehan to five years. Under the Proceeds of Crime Act, it was heard they each benefited from the scam by £995,915.27. They have both been ordered to pay £156,000 and have been given six months in which to pay. Should they fail to do so, there will be a two-year four-month prison sentence which will run consecutive to the sentence passed today. The brothers ran North West Claims Centre Ltd, a Burnley company which managed insurance claims. They organised fraudulent claims following collisions deliberately caused by other members of an organised crime group, including Mohammed Patel. The scam ensured all those involved would earn money at the expense of the other parties’ insurers. http://www.burnleyexpress.net/news/l...iled_1_3777073 This has been happening around Oldham for years, in fact a few months ago on Ashton Rd, at the King St roundabout a car with four Stanies in it started to go then stop suddenly. Lucky for me and not trusting the bastards I didn't move I gave them the finger and shouted Pen Jud out of my window, they got the message. |

£1m 'crash for cash' conmen jailed
Published on Friday 16 September 2011 19:40 Two brothers at the heart of one of the country's biggest ever "crash for cash" car insurance scams in Lancashire have been jailed. Police say Rezwan Javed, 34, and his older brother Rehan, 36, made £995,915 from defrauding insurers after bogus bumps on the road. The pair, both from Dovedale Close, Burnley, have been sentenced to jail at Minshull Street Crown Court in Manchester after being found guilty at an earlier trial of conspiracy to defraud and possession of an article for use in fraud. They would get associates to drive around and stop at roundabouts. While the car behind them was looking right for traffic to clear so they could then edge forward, the Javeds' drivers in front would slam on their brakes, causing a shunt. They then made bogus claims for repairs, write-offs and storage costs, also claiming there were three people in the car hit from behind. Each bogus claim netted around £3,000. Rezwan Javed was sentenced to six years in prison and Rehan was sentenced to five years. Under the Proceeds of Crime Act, they were both ordered to pay £156,000 and given six months to pay it. If they do not there will be a two year four month prison sentence which will run consecutive to the sentence passed on Thursday. Passing sentence Judge Bernard Lever said: "What you developed was nothing short of a production line of fraud on an industrial scale.This is not a victimless crime either in financial or human terms. "Some of the targeted occupants were elderly and children. Many lost their no claims bonus and had to pay greatly enhanced premiums. Some suffered trauma and nervous shock. "I have required the prosecution to produce the exact and most recent statistics of motor insurance fraud, which is costing every motorist £44 per year per policy and the insurance industry £2 billion per year." w.burnleyexpress.net/news/regional-news/1m_crash_for_cash_conmen_jailed_1_3777160 This nearly happened to me some time back, I approached the roundabout top of Ashton Rd, at King St. Four muslim youths in a car tried to do the same, I just waited untill they moved of and gave them the finger. Also shouted out of my window that they are sister sha@@ers in Punjabi or Urdu, I don't know which language it is but they do get the message from the look on their faces, also if you find yourself in this situation watch out for no brake lights on their cars they put dud bulbs in and claim they were damaged in the crash. |

'Crash for cash' fraudsters told to pay back what's left of £1m they made in insurance scams (but there's only £79,000 left)
By Martin Robinson 30th September 2011 Four 'crash for cash' fraudsters who made more than £1 million by staging car accidents will not be forced to pay all the money back because they have spent most of it. The Luton gang, who swindled huge sums off insurance companies in bogus claims, only have £79,000 left between them, the town's crown court was told. Hafiz Chishti, 36, made a cool £870,000 out of the scam but now has just £8,000 in cash and property for the courts to seize. Partner in crime Wajid Hussain, 32, must hand over just £70,000 of more than £280,000 he obtained while Changaiz Ishaq, 31, profited to the tune of £18,000 but has less than £1,000 available to hand over. Finally Avinash Pancha, 34, only has £100 of the £3,600 he made in the scam, meaning they have spent £921,000 of cash obtained through deception between them.

Four ‘crash for cash’ fraudsters who ripped £3million off insurance companies by staging car smashes and filing fake insurance claims were jailed today.
Another two men who helped make the claims and smash up the luxury cars for the benefit of insurance company inspectors were spared jail, but ordered to pay compensation to the Co-operative, RBS and Norwich Union. The team of six faked more than 120 accidents, making claims to insurers for incidents that never took place, netting more than £1.17million for themselves. Conned insurance companies from 84 of the faked smashes paid out a total of £1.91million between November 2005 and October 2008. A further £427,000 worth of claims were rejected by the insurance companies. With the remaining 40 the police were unable to retrieve details for the total figure is likely to be closer to £3million. Bogus crashes mainly involved flash, high-price cars, such as Jaguars, BMWs and Mercedes, with ‘old bangers’, where the low value car was always ‘at fault’. The cocky con-artists even held ‘crashing parties’ where they would share food and drink before 'criminal mastermind' Mohammed Samsul Haque, 26, and Rosul Yusuf, 33, directed others to ram the expensive cars. If the damage was insufficient the gang used baseball bats, smashing lights and wing mirrors to create more. Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...#ixzz1bIn66iUU |

Guilty verdicts in fatal car scam
Date published: 28 February 2017 THREE men involved in a "cash for crash" scam which killed an 88-year-old woman in Leeds have been convicted. Mr Justice Goss returned verdicts with no jury after jurors at Leeds Crown Court reported they were offered bribes. Betty Laird died after the collision in September 2014. Sabir Hussain, 25, of Leeds, Raja Hussain, 31, of Leeds, and Shahrear Islam Miah, 26, of Chadderton, were found guilty of conspiracy to commit fraud. The Hussains were also convicted of manslaughter. Miah was cleared of the charge. Mr Justice Goss said there was a "concerted attempt" to tamper with the jury. "Approaches [were] made to five [jurors] after they left court on Tuesday by at least two different people, one female and one or two males, to reach certain verdicts." Mrs Laird died after the car she was in was in collision with a Volkswagen Passat on Old Lane in Beeston in September 2014. http://www.oldham-chronicle.co.uk/ne...fatal-car-scam |

Car scam raids
Reporter: Jacob Metcalf Date online: 28 April 2017 POLICE made five arrests when they executed dawn raids in Oldham as they targeted gang members believed to be involved in a high-value car scam. More than 100 officers from Greater Manchester Police and Cheshire Constabulary carried out the raids, which included areas in Levenshulme and Stockport. Officers targeted eight properties and arrested five men aged between 28 and 58-years-old. The sting follows a lengthy and complex investigation by Cheshire Constabulary's Economic Crime Unit, looking into the activities of a group thought to be fraudulently leasing high value cars, which are then transported overseas and never seen again. Det Sgt Brian Faint, of Cheshire Constabulary's Economic Crime Unit, said: "Organised crime groups bring misery and pain to our communities http://www.oldham-chronicle.co.uk/ne...car-scam-raids . Could this be the new enrichment crime? |

Cash-for-crash gang's associates 'triggered fire alarm during trial then offered jurors £500 to find them not guilty as they waited to get back into the court'
Girl told to bribe jurors to say 'not guilty' but asked for guilty in error, court heard Was part of an attempt by group of eight to allegedly fix the verdict, jury told Attempts unsuccessful after the judge used rare legal powers to convict himself By Rory Tingle For Mailonline Published: 18:31, 25 October 2017 | Updated: 18:34, 25 October 2017 A teenager was recruited by a gang to approach jurors with £500 to return a 'not guilty' verdict during a trial but 'got her words wrong' - and asked them to find the defendants guilty, a court heard. The bungled attempts were unsuccessful after the judge used rare legal powers to take on the jury's role for himself. The girl, 15, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was part of a trio who allegedly approached five members of a jury to attempt to bribe them with cash to find the defendants not guilty.
