Her circle of friends and family kept shrinking while her insurance payouts kept growing. Why does it appear that life insurance scams are all too common? Here in 2022, we are dealing with another high profile case of the 'Psycho River Killer' where her first attempt to grab a hefty insurance payout involved a meal of pufferfish gone bad. What reforms are needed to keep the public safe from criminals who resort to this method?
