INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – A McCordsville man was sentenced to 47 months for conspiracy to commit wire fraud, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.
According to the department, 31-year-old Wesley Smith, who worked for Seven Corners, a travel insurance business in Carmel, used his position to set up a system in order to secure and steal money from the business.
Smith, in a scheme that went from Dec. 2015 to Dec. 2017, created and also approved fake insurance claims that were purportedly submitted by Family Motor Coach Association (FMCA) claimants. Smith, along with three friends he recruited who did not work for the business, used names of real FMCA members on claims, saying that the person’s RV had been towed by a company that was looking to be reimbursed.
