Social Media Mining: Spying On You
FRESNO, Calif. (KMPH) -
The next time you post something on your Facebook or Twitter account, you may want to ask yourself: what would my insurance company think about this?
For insurance companies, it’s all about saving their money!
Beware, what you post on your social media pages could have a dramatic affect on what you pay for insurance premiums, or worse, one man almost had his claim denied!
Kurt Nordland never dreamed photos he posted on his Facebook page would create huge problems.
The pictures show him drinking a beer and relaxing with his pals at the beach.
Who would have guessed investigators from the insurance company paying his worker’s comp benefits were monitoring his Facebook account?
Well, soon after the photos were posted, the insurance company canceled his payments, cut off his medical benefits and Kurt had to delay surgery to repair torn cartilage in his shoulder.
