詐死詐領保險金

Man who allegedly faked his own death for insurance money returned to Taiwan

(CAN)-- A man who was accused of faking his own death and that of his wife in 2001 to collect NT$64.82 million (US$2.20 million) in life insurance was escorted back to Taiwan from China by police Sunday.

Hsu Wen-tung, 66, was found when his wife died of a heart attack in Jiangsu Province, China in May this year and their children tried to have the body returned to Taiwan for burial, the police said.

 

After almost five months of negotiations with Chinese law enforcement authorities, Taiwan police were able to bring Hsu back to Taiwan at 3:45 p.m. Sunday.

 

Hsu and his wife allegedly fled to China with fake passports and had been living there under false identities since 2005 after defrauding an insurance company of a huge sum of money.

 

The couple used to run a construction business that accumulated tens of millions of Taiwan dollars in debt.

 

During a typhoon in July 2001, they faked a car crash on the northeastern Coastal Highway toward Yilan and were reported missing, with the help of their children, according to police.

 

Their wrecked car was found the next day off the roadway, apparently having fallen from the highway at the 84 kilometer mark, but there were no bodies in the vehicle, police said.

 

Police said the couple hid in a rented flat in New Taipei for four years before fleeing to China.

 

Meanwhile, their three children, listed as beneficiaries on the couple's life insurance policies, sought to have their parents legally declared dead and to claim the insurance payments for accidental death.

 

Cathay Life Insurance Co., which had sold the couple the policies in 1993, sued the children for fraud, citing weather data, eyewitness reports and police evidence.

 
The courts, however, ruled in favor of the children, saying the two bodies may have washed into the ocean after the car crash, and instructed the company to pay the claims of NT$64.82 million.

Questions:

1. What do you think about this false insurance claim?

2. What do you think about insurance fraud cases in Taiwan? (Ex: cutting fingers, fake car accidents)

3. What is the easiest quickest way to get money legal or illegal?

4. What do you do if you were in debts and you have no money to pay back a debt? Where to get help?

5. What happens if you get into an accident and don't have insurance?

What happens if you don't buy life insurance?

6. How to handle insurance frauds, if you were the man who is in charge of insurance claims in an insurance company?

7. What kinds of insurance do you need? And do you buy any kind of insurance?

Filmmakers, public blast Taiwan media for hounding on Luc Besson film

(Focus Taiwan Christie Chen)

Taipei, Oct. 28 (CNA) Taiwanese filmmakers and members of the public have expressed disappointment with local media after news that French director Luc Besson may cut short filming in Taipei for his new movie "Lucy" due to repeated disturbances by media workers.

"The media and public should show their love for Taiwan... If Luc Besson is scared away, would other foreign directors be willing to shoot films in Taiwan?" veteran director Chu Yen-Ping was quoted in the China Times Monday.

In a United Daily News report the same day, producer Lee Lieh said that films, especially Hollywood films, are the best way to advertise Taiwan, urging the media to recognize that "Taiwan needs this kind of publicity."

Academic and former senior reporter Liu Huei-ling explained the aggressive approach of media workers as a symptom of a highly competitive industry that has caused reporters to lose sight of what is and is not appropriate.

Meanwhile, thousands of furious Taiwanese haven taken to the Internet to condemn the behavior of reporters and photographers, which they labeled paparazzi, for hounding Besson and his cast and crew.

"Paparazzi, please stop shaming the Taiwanese," read a comment by a Web user calling himself Weizai on a report that Besson plans to cut shooting, including planned shots at landmarks like Longshan Temple, due to harassment.

On another report, a user calling himself Max wrote that the media "do not represent Taiwan, but if you and I chose to remain silent and let them get away with it without saying anything, we are choosing to hurt Taiwan." The comment received hundreds of "likes" from other users.

Besson's crew reported to police Friday a near-collision when their cars were almost hit by pursuing media workers, according to the Taipei City Government. In a separate incident, photographers reportedly surrounded and banged on the windows of a car carrying Scarlett Johansson, the film's female lead, when it stopped at a red light.

Questions:

1. Should celebrities be more protected from the media?

2. Why photographers are chasing celebrity?

Do the paparazzi go too far?

What do you think about paparazzi?

3. Do you agree that “Hollywood films are the best way to advertise Taiwan " and Taiwan needs this kind of publicity?

4. In your opinion, is there any other ways to advertise Taiwan?

5. How do the media affect how people think?

6. What do you think about TV news theses days?

 （中央社記者劉建邦台北27日電）刑事局今天押解詐保案66歲許文同回台。許男夫妻在桃芝颱風襲台期間假死詐保，在台躲了近4年，民國94年持假證件飛往大陸。

 警方查出，90年7月29日許姓夫婦開車前往宜蘭，經北濱公路金石園停車場附近，製造假意外，把車推落下方海蝕平台；隔天民眾發現報案，墜崖車輛嚴重損害，但只遺留被害人手機、鞋子等許多物品，但許姓夫婦不知去向，列為風災失蹤人口。
 

 警方調查，1年後許姓夫妻小孩以遭遇特別災難向新北地方法院聲請宣告死亡，經法院宣告死亡確定，向保險公司詐領保險金新台幣6400萬元。

 

 警方表示，許男案發後，藏匿新北市淡水租屋處，94年透過報紙小廣告，購買假護照、台胞證，之後在小孩協助下，夫婦兩人潛逃大陸上海，直到許妻今年5月因病過世，才爆出假死12年詐保案。

 

詐保案曝光 許妻過世是關鍵 
 

（中央社記者劉建邦台北27日電）刑事局今天押解詐保案涉案人66歲許文同回台，警方說許妻今年5月因心肌梗塞過世，兒子隔月向地檢署自白，才讓案情曝光。

  民國90年7月底「桃芝」颱風襲台期間，造成全台百人死傷，7月29日許姓夫婦開車前往宜蘭，經北濱公路金石園停車場附近，跌落下方海蝕平台。隔天民眾發現報案，墜崖車輛嚴重損害，但現場只留兩人手機、鞋子等物品，夫婦兩人被列為風災失蹤人口。

  刑事局調查，從事建築業的許姓夫婦從82年至89年期間向保險公司投保壽險和意外險，共10件，受益人為2男、1女一共3名子女，理賠總金額達1億1940萬元。
 

  因房價在89年大跌，許男負債累累，警方說，許男和2名兒子共謀在90年颱風來襲期間，製造假意外墜崖失蹤，隔年許男小孩以遭遇特別災難為由，向新北地院聲請宣告死亡，經法院宣告死亡確定，向保險公司詐領保險金，成功領取6480多萬元。
 

 警方指出，藏匿大陸多年的許男妻子今年5月因心肌梗塞逝世，許男兒子6月赴基隆地檢署自白和父母親及哥哥共謀，在風災期間以假死詐領保險金。
 

阻偷拍 路上演出「拋錨戲」 法導演台北拍片爆衝突

 法國導演呂克．貝松（Luc Besson）在台北拍新片《露西》(Lucy)，劇組人員日前遭狗仔阻擋上車，雙方發生肢體衝撞，導演震怒到警局備案。而為阻劇情曝光，劇組也使出渾身解數，工作人員近日竟在路上演出「拋錨戲」，擋住媒體跟拍。

台北市電影委員會媒體和出版總編輯盧悅珠表示，日前，呂克．貝松劇組人員、演員遭狗仔跟拍，直到一行人上車後還不善罷干休，用手猛拍車窗。《中國時報》報道，不僅如此，近日，劇組人員從晶華酒店離開時，有狗仔衝上前搶拍不讓上車，雙方一度發生衝撞，並傳出發生媒體車衝撞劇組車事件，呂克．貝松好不容易脫身到車上，狗仔還一路追趕，接連狀況嚇得呂克．貝松團隊已忍無可忍，只好到中山警分局備案，希望接下來拍片能順利。

而另一方面，劇組也採取行動防偷拍，近日下午2時多，劇組人員將5、6台交通車與器材車列隊停在晶華酒店側門，導演盧貝松先行上車準備離開，此時一輛黑色廂型車卻「意外」拋錨，讓後方車輛無法動彈，一身是戲的工作人員也「做戲做全套」，當街演出拋錨推車劇，即使後方民眾車輛猛按喇叭，劇組人員仍不為所動，緩緩將車子推到一旁的平面停車場。

晚間6時，劇組則是來到北市吉林路與錦州街口，拍攝邢峰開的士劇情，現場將近30位工作人員，在開拍前先是進行交通管制，保鏢也四處巡邏，嚴防拍戲畫面曝光。

台北市長郝龍斌亦出面喊話，媒體的「熱情」影響拍片進度，在約定區域外出現危險動作，希望大家自制，讓國際導演、演員對台灣、台北留下好印象。風災假死詐保險金 許文同押返台
