Super Trooper Fans?

"Bear F@#$er....do you require assistance?"

If you know, you know:

  • Three Southern California residents have been sentenced in a bizarre insurance fraud scheme which prosecutors say involved them staging fake bear attacks on high-end cars.

    It all stems from a claim the suspects filed with their insurance company, saying a bear got into their car, a 2010 Rolls-Royce Ghost, at Lake Arrowhead on Jan. 28, 2024, and damaged the inside with scratches. The California Department of Insurance said the suspects provided a video to the company, which showed the "bear" in the car.

    [...]  Investigators uncovered two other fraudulent claims submitted to different insurance companies regarding the same incident.

    On Thursday, Alfiya Zuckerman, 39, of Valley Village, Ruben Tamrazian, 26, of Glendale, and Vahe Muradkhanyan, 32, of Glendale, were sentenced to 180 days in jail and ordered to pay restitution.

Insurance fraud is nothing new, but we gotta say, this is a new twist.

Import the third world, become the third world 🌎. Due to the increase in immigrants insuring their businesses with multiple company's then burning them down insurance companies started comparing notes about 20 years ago. These dudes were probably on holiday in Pakistan and didn't get the memo

This would not have happened if the bears had moved to Arlington Heights or Hammond.

What's even stranger is that the 180 days are being served on weekends only.

I have always found it strange that when someone's car got broken into downtown, not only one set, but two sets of Ping golfclubs were stolen.

If one held the recording device, which one was the head and who was the tail in the bear suit?
None of those names sounded Amish.

I remember reading this story two years ago. These fools MIGHT have got away with it ONCE, but they got greedy and staged ~3 fake "bear invasions" over three days, which I guess is when they had to return the rented bear suit. IIRC, the insurance companies got suspicious when the same names were making bear attack claims with multiple insurers on the same day.

These people have names that are eye-wateringly, jaw-breakingly Armenian. Two live in Glendale -- NO WAY!

There was a PO in 007 that reported his car stolen. They grabbed someone torching the car later. The PO showed up at the district to try to bond the arsonist out. Got the PO fired...oh well, seemed like a good idea. At the time....

Was their (the perps or their several polygamy spouses) employment in anyway tied to -
1) Day care 'Learing Centers'
2) Medical transportation "companies"
3) Autism care centers?
