Being Social Didn't Pay Off!
The claimant (pictured above and below) allegedly injured his back while working for the insured on July 31, 2011. The Alliance Worldwide Investigative team conducted a compreshensive search of multiple sources and found that the claimant was very active on social networking sites. The claimant's public Facebook page revealed where he was residing and where he spent much of his time with his girlfriend. As can be seen from the photos, he led a very active lifestyle and was documented playing golf and coming and going from the residence. Alliance was able to use the social networking information as a tool to not only help locate the individual but to obtain documentation contrary to the alleged injury.
Alliance Worldwide Investigative Group, Inc. can conduct surveillance efforts to determine if your claimant's disability and/or mobility restrictions are fraudulent.
