Exaggerated Damage Claims Costing You Millions

FEMA -- the Federal Emergency Management Agency -- sent $29.5 million to Mobile, Alabama residents for flood damage. Even though local emergency coordinators say there was no damage.

Again, thousands of claims for Hurricane Frances damage -- in parts of North Carolina where the storm did virtually no damage.

And local emergency coordinators in Detroit were stunned that 30,000 people filed $33.9 million in storm damage claims. They can't believe more than 2,000 really deserved the money. (Sun Sentinel)
