After she slams on the brakes and I hit her,
she gets out of her car. Her arms are flailing
over the place. She's angry, she's ira. So I get
out of my car trying to calm her down, and
then I totally freak out because this woman is going crazy.
I get back in my car and left.

It's obvious in the video that we're looking at on
my Instagram into Hollywood, Hamilton. It's definitely insurance fraud. She
arranged the entire accident. You hit her, you have it
on a dash cam, you have all the evidence, and
then you flee the scene.

So, you know, with a lot of these scams, James,
the number one thing when this happens to you, the
first thing that you have to do is you have
to call the police.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
You have to call them.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
What they're going to ask for is physical evidence, meaning
they're gonna have to look at your car. They ask
that you hopefully will have a witness that witnessed the
whole thing.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
Were you alone, James, Yeah, my girl was in the
car with me.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
