The Bear Cave alleges the investigation, based on consumer complaints obtained through public records requests, reveals a broader scope of issues beyond previous reports focused on Globe Life's ( GL ) subsidiary, American Income Life. Complaints allegedly include deceptive marketing practices and false claims of affiliation with the Department of Veteran Affairs.

Globe Life ( GL ) is “morally bankrupt and financially univestable” based on the evidence gathered, according to The Bear Cave, which said it operates independently and does not take financial positions against companies it investigates.
