ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WHEC) — In Wednesday's consumer alert I’m examining those bills that could cost consumers far more than money.
You'll remember on Tuesday I told you that New Yorkers are getting bills in the mail for insurance they didn't buy.
And those bills are expensive. I'm not talking about the bills themselves. I'm talking about what this fateful financial fraud could cost consumers in the long run.
I closely examined a bundle of bills that looked real. That’s because it was indeed a bundle of real bills requesting payment for real auto insurance policies. But the consumers getting those bills don't actually owe this insurer any money.
