Insurance fraud is one of the most costly white-collar crimes in America, ranking second
only to tax evasion. Private property and casualty insurers lose $100 billion every year to insurance criminals. Increased
incidences of insurance fraud has prompted 43 states to create fraud bureaus. Vision Security & Investigations works cooperatively
with law enforcement in gathering information that can lead to uncovering fraud and bringing new cases to prosecution.
Surveillance is the foremost tool in uncovering fraudulent
workers' compensation and liability claims. VSI operatives use state-of-the-art audio/visual equipment and methods to
document behavior that could be contradictory of an injury claim.
VSI investigators perform both stationary and mobile surveillance to discreetly
document the claimant’s daily activities and physical abilities.
We provide you with time reports and frequent
