Petition Ensure That 100% of Fraudulent Housing Benefit Claims are Investigated
More details
Despite advertising, housing benefit fraud is rarely investigated, because of costs involved. This just means that millions of scroungers take advantage of tax payers. I have personally twice reported housing benefit fraud going on in a premier street in London's West End 1999 & the council have twice rejected any investigation on grounds of cost. The police actually want to investigate this incident but themselves are not allowed without a housing council officer's referral.
