Update! Rat Scam Couple Sentenced!
Back in May of last year, you may remember my mention of the couple who were arrested for using dead rats to scam customers and their insurance companies at their auto repair shop. Well, they’ve now been sentenced, and I was surprised to read that they were hit pretty hard by the courts! The husband received a well-deserved four years in prison for bilking customers out of an estimated $1.2 million. The wife received six months for her involvement. On top of it all, they will be forced to pay more than $875,000 to the insurance companies they scammed. Read about it in the San Francisco Chronicle.
