Surprised Uxbridge is number 1 per Capita and Blackburn not far behind.

Also surprising to see Leeds above Bradford too considering it is/was a major issue in Bradford.

Though the figures are from 2010.

The top 20 places where car crashes are set up by the perps so they can claim hefty compensation via insurance pay outs.

This is of course anecdotal however when these stories hit the newspapers there sure are a lot of surnames like Khan, Ali, Patel and Singh which pop up. Brown people are disproportionately carrying out such fraudulent scams.

Considering those of Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi origin only make up 2-3% of the population why are we over represented when it comes to insurance fraud in the UK?

Unfortunately your average white person isn't even allowed to ask such questions because people will cry 'you racist' in order to shut down all debate.

Seems like Eastern Europeans are catching on to it.

One crook “Tariq” told us how Asian gangs in Bradford were now feeling the squeeze from the better-organised Eastern European migrants who set up complicated crashes when approached by drivers looking to make money.

He told the Daily Star Sunday’s reporter: “Lots of the Bradford Asians charged someone £500 up front to organise the crash but lately they have been under pressure from the Poles and the Latvians.

“These guys only take a payment if the claim goes through successfully and, to be honest, they are being smarter.

“Asian gangs have been claiming for two cars’ worth of people all with Asian surnames so the investigators have been sussing them out. They either don’t pay the claims or take ages to settle.

“The Europeans have been mixing up the names and using a mixture of local people as well so that the claims go through smoothly.

Retribution for colonialism. Let us take advantage of this for another few hundred years ok ? Then we'll be on par with white people, if they happen to still exist by then.

Birmingham has topped the UK's "crash for cash" postcode league - the second time in a year the city has featured in a table of hotspots for the crime.
The scams are run by fraudsters who manufacture collisions with other road users, hoping to profit from insurance claims.
In the table, compiled by the Insurance Fraud Bureau (IFB), Birmingham had 10 of the top 30 postcodes for the crime.
Manchester, Bradford, London and Oldham also featured on the list.
