agree rkillings : It's fraudulent, all right, but wouldn't the legal term be 'conversion' or 'concealment'?

mishandling the metal

Hello,

I'm reading "détournement" as "indélicatesse", which, in turn, means something like "mishandling" in English here.

And the moving insurance didn't cover it. The moving company's insurance doesn't cover ... possibilities for claim are water damage, mishandling and theft. ...

I hope this helps.
