JUst think of each one of these people like the one I reported today that get £400 a week which they do not need, instead they could be working like the rest of people. On top of that he does work making around £600 on top of that a week so roughly makes around £1000 a week. :mad: So if there are more people like that think how much of the taxe payers money goes towards greed!

Nope, but then think about the amount of people who commit this crime every day? Thousands upon thousands are literally stealing money they don't deserve and this money is coming out of our pockets!

You can report them online to but I wanted to make sure they actually do somthing about it so I phoned instead. Check here if you know anyone thats doing it https://secure.dwp.gov.uk/benefitfraud but the only people I think that stand up for these people are the ones doing it or have friends doing it.

i see your point but for it to have any baring on taxes everyone would have to report people they doing it and that just aint gunna happen. . . . i know loads of people that do and those people all know loads of people doing and those do too etc

nothing is gunna change unless everyone does something about it, but the vast majority of people won't

Sorry to sound stupid, but what IS Benefit Fraud? My dad is a lawyer, so I bet he deals with these all the time. I actaully got the chance to view a video that was taken. Now that I think of it, I know what it is. For those who didnt know, they actaully have a spy, that follows her/him around where ever he/she goes. They tape them walking, closing doors, picking things up, etc. I got to watch it, but the camera man sucked a bit, he kept getting some bushes (grass ) sometimes instead of here.
