In 2004, Ivan Vilches was hired by Travelers as a Senior Auto Damage Appraiser. In 2009, he was fired for refusing to participate in consumer fraud.

By 2006, Travelers knew that 2 out of 3 claims could be underpaid, if payment was made within 48 hours. At 50,000 claims per month, the profit potential was astronomical. To benefit from this fact, Travelers hired more people for their Claims Departments and imposed a Contribution to Profits Quota on them.
A repair estimate is a list of what needs to be repaired or replaced. Either requires labor, and the replacement part price is set by the manufacturer. But there is an alternative known to the industry as an "M&M" part (Mickey mouse or mysterious manufacturer). These parts only exist on paper, and their price is anything you can get away with.

By using M&M parts on the estimate, a $2500 headlamp becomes a Reconditioned $500 Headlamp. In the end, when the Company Quota comes in, the would-be $10,000 estimate can easily be turned into a fraudulent $5,000 estimate.
