IFB BBC story raises calls

The Insurance Fraud Bureau (IFB) said on Twitter that new calls to its Cheatline started at 7.31am on Saturday, just 16 minutes after the IFB’s first BBC TV interview.

The IFB told the BBC it estimates around 30,000 motor accidents were crash for cash last year, costing insurers £350m and adding £44 to the premium of every driver in the country.
