“As soon as the bear came into frame, to me, it was pretty quick and fairly obvious that it was not,” Howells said.

Four people were arrested Wednesday for allegedly submitting the fake videos and defrauding companies of about $140,000, the California Department of Insurance announced. The videos submitted to the insurance companies actually showed a human dressed as a bear, the department said, adding that its detectives had found a bear costume when searching the homes of the four Los Angeles-area residents who were arrested. The group allegedly submitted similar videos and photos to at least three different insurance companies claiming a bear had damaged their cars, including a Rolls-Royce and two Mercedes, officials said.
