No, I don't think that its a concern over fraud. I think its more likely that they've gutted their sales force. I called them last week about a product and was unable to speak to a salesman. I finally got a call back after 5 working days. Salesman seems helpful enough, but they're unquestionably putting very little effort into selling products.
