Sham Funeral

At first glance, it appears like your stock standard insurance fraud, but Faye Shilling has just pleaded guilty to one of the cleverer swindles.

Shilling, and her accomplice who has pleaded not guilty, schemed to defraud insurance companies by claiming out on policies for fictitious people.

In order to make the claims believable, Shilling, who is a phlebotomist teamed up with a mortuary worker to hold fake funerals for the fictional dead.

They pulled in over a million dollars before getting caught last year.

Clowns. Putting the fun into funerals.
