Scammers perform car crashes with family acting as victims with payouts of over $6 million

Sometimes you start reading a story and just can’t put it down — each turn just adds a new level of monstrosity that you want more of. That is exactly the content of this new story New York Magazine About The prodigious con artist William Mize IV is like: an absolute nail biter.

Mize used her money and mercenary nature to entice members of her family. They will agree to be injured by Mize personally and then participate in some kind of accident to claim for insurance. His favorite scams have always involved some sort of motor vehicle. This is how does it go down?:

Mize hurts you one by one, pulls tools from a briefcase, cold and business. He will shave your eyebrows with a razor or a box cutter. Cover the wound with sandpaper, clamping it firmly if you are not bleeding enough. For concussions or broken knees, he will smash you with wine bottles, bricks, frying pans. You will take a Red Bull tablet to raise your blood pressure. Take aspirin to make your blood flow faster. Pour a bottle of your urine over your pants as if you were blackening.

Inside the “victim” car, women can clip neck braces and wear helmets. Men usually won’t get any protection: too meek, in Mize’s view. He will rush into the car “at fault”, headlights shining through the darkness down the road. Now your fear will come in – be afraid of what is going to happen, if you can do this.

All clear.

Mize will hit the gas, speeding toward you at 40, even 50 mph – you’re already crammed with other guys, your girlfriend or cousin or best man, like a bowling pin. Your wound is already throbbing, and you fear that the crash won’t go according to script to cause more damage: steel warping unexpectedly, glass cutting something important, seat belts severing a spleen.

After the collision, after the cars turn and stop, after you realize that you are running around but are alive, Mize or another person will rush to the window to get the helmet, braces and pee bottle and burned the phone. Mize would hop in a third car with a driver on vacation and disappear. The actor at fault will climb into the driver’s seat of the car that Mize left behind, ready to admit his fault.

Then you sit in eerie silence, listening to the dripping oil. You’ll ask quietly if everyone is okay, knocking on your scrapes to release fresh blood as the sirens begin their small, distant screams.

It just got wilder from there. Mize calls himself a ring of evil, because he is basically what he is. He would use flashy Christmas parties and big financial gifts to shower kindness on families in need and when he wanted something in return, he would come up with one. other plans. All told, the federalists succeed with compelling charges from the 2013 cases, “…101 counts of money laundering and mail, wire transfer, and healthcare fraud.”

He used his family, promising to take the fall and run away as soon as the consequences were resolved, leaving behind more than just twisted metal after waking him up. Read more about this scary story of a family in hand of a scammer here.
