Im in a dilemma, opinions and suggestions very much appreciated

Shop her, and him

Someone I know has been evicted from from their home.

 

They are staying in temporary accommodation just outside town.

 

The accommodation is run by a housing associahastion, and has an office on site.

 

My dilemma is this,

The rules of her temp tenancy is that the partner cannot stay for longer than 2 nights a week. BUT this is being ignored, she has had all the help she could hope for and more. She has been accepted for income support as a single parent (he still living there), tax credits have been altered without delay, she can bid on homes of her choice due to help from the housing dept.

 

So knowing that she is taking advantage of all who are helping her, fraudulently claiming income support and tax credits, planning on moving him in as soon as she the new house and he is working whilst claiming JSA and driving an uninsured car to his place of work.

 

This kind of behaviour is what people blame "immigrants" for. In my eyes it is not on.

 

If I report her to DSS her money stops and she is back to square one, If I report her to housing she is once again homeless with two children, but she needs to know that what she is doing is wrong and illegal.

 

 

What would you do?

 

All advice and opinions are welcomed, although I have not posted this to get abuse.

 

Thankyou,

This is tearing a family apart.

 

This is guaranteed to get the usual suspects foaming from the mouth!

 

Why do you need to ask?

 

Are you the sort of person who feels they want to do something but feel they have to get public approval before they act?

@clownaround - have you decided what to do? The longer the fraud goes on, the higher the penalty will be when she is found out. Benefit fraud can involve a custodial sentence. At the very least she will have a criminal record. If you don't want to report the matter to the authorities then try to get her to see sense.

Shop em for the lot.

 

If he's working then he's getting paid under the table otherwise the checks that DWP will have done using his NINO would have flagged up his employment, so report his employer for tax-fraud too.

 

Here, Here.

Report them both. You can do it anonymously if you prefer but report it because this stuff costs every one of us at the end of the day and depending on how serious it is and how long it's gone on for she and he are likely to receive custodial sentences or at least a criminal record which lessens their employment chances in the long run.

Have you a reason for taking such interest?

If in doubt ....... leave well alone.

"Nearly all children nowadays were horrible. What was worst of all was that by means of such organizations as the Spies they were systematically turned into ungovernable little savages, and yet this produced in them no tendency whatever to rebel against the discipline of the Party. On the contrary, they adored the Party and everything connected with it… All their ferocity was turned outwards, against the enemies of the State, against foreigners, traitors, saboteurs, thought-criminals. It was almost normal for people over thirty to be frightened of their own children."

Leave alone benefit fraud and more importantly driving with no insurance?
