This Scammer Jumped In Front Of A Moving Car And Made The Biggest Mistake Ever
The Association for Safe International Road Travel reports that nearly 1.3 million people die in road accidents each year, which means that 3,287 people perish in crashes daily. That is a harrowing statistic and it’s small wonder that countries all over the world work to improve road safety. However, some people see accidents on road as an opportunity to profit.
Back in July of last year, a dash-cam video surfaced on Facebook, showing a pair of men trying to stage an accident. Why? To try and claim insurance. Insurance fraud is a serious and frequent problem in the UK, where the video takes place, with 68,000 cases of motor insurance fraud reported in 2016 only, as the Association of British Insurers reports.
Luckily, the lady driving the car had the upper hand in this unfortunate situation and we’re sure that the moped-driving-accident-causing men who were trying to pull this scam off regret it. Scroll down to see what happened.

The man with a moped ran in front of a car, crashing his vehicle
He then jumped stopped and jumped on the woman’s dash
And tried to make it look like she hit him
He even got his friend to film the ‘accident’ as a proof
However, what they didn’t know is that the woman had a dash cam and filmed the entire ordeal
“What the hell? You idiot!” the woman shouted, as the two men scurried away
People on the internet were quick to express their opinions

I'm with the others...she should have waited to say she had a camera! But obviously your adrenaline is rushing and you are freaking out not thinking when something like this happens!

You can almost hear the cartoon running away music in your head as these two morons realize their plan failed.

Imagine the hassle she would have had to deal with if she didn't have a cam? I hope these dudes get charged with fraud! They are the worst

They likely were asking for money right away. Maybe didn't even want to go to court. Either way, she had the footage.

This happened to my mom once. We were all in the car and a guy stepped out from the curb in front of her. He happened to have a video camera with him which got "thrown" to the ground. Police were called, half the witnesses said the guy was innocent, the other half claimed they saw him deliberately walk out in front of her then throw his camera to the ground. The 'victim' wasn't concerned about his health he was just saying "my camera, my camera, she broke it". Police let us go and we didn't hear about again until 2 years later when the guy tried to sue her for damages...to the damn camera. Ugh.
