Spartanburg County woman accused of attempting to defraud GEICO of thousands
SPARTANBURG COUNTY, S.C. (FOX Carolina) - The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) charged a Spartanburg County woman with insurance fraud on Monday.
Officials said that Erin Shaquaile Robbs Kilgore, 31, was charged with the following:
- Presenting a False Claim for Insurance Payment – Value $10,000 or More
- (2 counts) Forgery – Value Less Than $10,000
- Forgery – No Dollar Amount Involved
The South Carolina Department of Insurance requested the SLED investigation.
According to arrest warrants, Kilgore knowingly submitted a false insurance claim to GEICO around April 17. She uploaded two altered medical bills through the company’s online portal, the first from Atrium Health reflected a service date of Oct. 5 2022, for $9,700.60, and the second from Spartanburg Regional reflected service dates Oct. 8 and Oct. 10, 2022, for $4,287.23. An investigation determined that Kilgore did not receive treatment on those dates.
Another arrest warrant indicates that around June 3, 2024, Kilgore submitted a forged bank statement to GEICO, issued by Citi Bank, reflecting two debit purchases on Dec. 14, 2023, allegedly made to Atrium Health and Spartanburg Regional in the amounts of $9,700.60 and $4,287.23. The investigation revealed that the account number and name listed on the bank statement did not exist.
Kilgore was booked into the Spartanburg County Detention Center. The case will be prosecuted by the South Carolina Department of Insurance.
