AAMI Insurance - Fraudulent Claims

One of the current commercials aired on Australian television by AAMI Insurance, shows rather naive looking young lad polishing his VolksWagen Golf.

The lad then claims that from the savings made from his insurance policy he was able to re-spray his vehicle (from it's original colour) to Fire Hydrant Red.

AAMI then states that an average saving on it's policy is approx. $166.

A professional looking (as depicted in the advertisement) 're-spray' on any car in no where near the magnitude of the quoted $166, or even 10 times that amount.

Deliberately fraudulent claims and misleading information given to the general public.

A move that is supported by the advertising networks and omitted my the spineless ACCC.

As always NO legal action will follow.
