fraud claim
Alleged swindle report
A fraud claim is an assertion that deception has occurred, typically filed with an insurance company, court, or regulatory body.
Someone making a fraud claim alleges they were cheated or that another party made false representations for gain: She filed a fraud claim after discovering the contractor never intended to complete the work.
The phrase also describes the claim itself being fraudulent—a false insurance claim, for instance—where context determines which meaning applies.
