 So as you unwind from the work-week grind, here are three interesting insurance-related stories you'll want to check out:

--- Here's one about an alleged scam involving older-model cars, **[spilled coffee](http://www.mercurynews.com/crime-courts/ci_28494612/prosecutors-33-people-scammed-insurance-companies-by-crashing)** and crashes.

-- A memorably harsh 2015 winter in Massachusetts will affect **[2016 premiums](https://www.bostonglobe.com/business/2015/07/12/winter-bill-for-homeowners-insurance-comes-due/125kxlyUsTcTW1FJwsVQGJ/story.html#)**.

-- A thoughtful essay on the value of **[cyber insurance](http://www.computerworld.com/article/2948129/security/assessing-the-value-of-cyber-insurance.html)**, which just so happens to be something for which The Plexus Groupe can provide **[consulting and placement](http://www.plexusgroupe.com/s/property-casualty/products/img)**.
