To save you all a click and some time: the source says that the report is bogus.

The URL says the report's bogus.

I have a few friends who claim that this is possible .... like getting hurt or injured at home or on your own property, you can make claims with your insurance company to get compensated.

Sure it might be possible ... but what no one ever mentions is the fact that if you do attempt to pull this off, you have to find a cooperative lawyer and spend the next few years in court to argue it all and maybe lose.

and then you'll get dropped by every insurance provider regardless

If this did happen, it would be you vs your insurance provider, not you vs yourself which is why this scenario is bunk.

Just like with 90% of the people online who say they'll sue someone for xy or z.

Court is a bitch

I think I read the original tabloid this was published in at the grocery store. I used to laugh so hard reading those.

I wonder how BatBoy is doing these days...

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago

Haven't you heard? He grew up and became the protagonist for multiple film series. They still haven't made one that looks like him, though.

I assume if he won there was a legitimate reason to do so - does anyone know what that is?

[–] [email protected] 34 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Apparently, it is not true

[–] [email protected] 41 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That's not possible sir, this is the Internet

[–] [email protected] 14 points 9 months ago

You think somemone would go on the internet just to tell lies!?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

No one would intentionally do this because of the tax implications.

Are these profits in danger?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago

This is way better than the South Korean guy who induced intentional frostbite to get his feet chopped off in an insurance scam. This guy might need to be in a leadership position.

Well to be fair, it only hit him in the head because it clipped out of the map and then somehow re- entered right behind him.
