If this is all just fraud, which happens in all states, it should be easy enough for the legislature and insurance companies to crack down on. But I'm not seeing evidence that that is the case. It's looking more and more like a message being spread to divert attention from the reality that risk of property damage and financial loss is statistically increasing in Florida.
