For those that are very skilled at deception, perhaps her advice could work for some, but SS has several ways to catch them--which I won't post about to make it easy for those engaging in such behavior. My guess is that it will backfire for most that attempt it, and once you've been caught it will be difficult to ever overcome the stigma attached to exaggerating one's disability--previous SSDI/SSDI case files are including with subsequent applications.
