Its becoming more and more popular for the SSA
to do whatever it takes to try to catch you not
following doctors orders, or prove that you are
not as sick or injured as you claim to be. Just
like private insurance companies used to follow
around claimants with video cameras doing
activities they werent supposed to be able to
do, the SSA is known for researching SSD
claimants to prove their claims are false. Only
now, public social media pages are making it
easier than ever for the SSA to claim you arent
as sick or injured as you say you are.
