That's according to a statement from the insurance company. 



MiWay CEO Rene Otto and Head of Marketing and Brand, Nthabiseng Molo met with the disgruntled client yesterday.



The company says he was identified during an independent forensic investigation.



In the statement the man says he apologises sincerely for his actions. 



"I apologise sincerely for my actions.  I acted impulsively and without any thought to how this post would spiral out of control.  I have learnt how dangerous social media can be, if misused, especially in South Africa. I also realise that I put the two MiWay employees in danger and I plan to meet with them, to apologise again in person."



MiWay says the two employees implicated by the culprit have accepted his apology and said they would also not press any charges against him.
