Would you report someone for benefit fraud?

[Halycon]

Hypothetical question, I’m not in this situation.

Just curious:

Report them, they deserve everything coming

or

Don’t be a grass?

Touts out 🤪

No.

Definitely not

Yes I have reported 3 x
it’s fraud !

Depends if I like them or not. 😂

No

I would have to be 100% sure of the facts before I would even consider it. Even then, probably not.

No

No.

Probably not.

Yes I would. It depends on the circumstances, but if I thought someone was absolutely taking the piss then I wouldn't hesitate.

I'd really want to but probably not because I'm quite lazy and couldn't be bothered.

In my private life, no. Professionally, yes. I have cause to report relatively often.

No.

No because it's probably not fraud. You can't know every detail of someone's situation. Keep your beak out of people's business.

No. I’m much more concerned about all the evil billionaires raping the world for profit than some poor people having slightly more than they’re meant to

It’s not a legal requirement, OP. So it would be completely down to you. You say you’re not in this situation, I wonder why you’re curious about it? Context would make a difference

Depends. If they are vile chavs then definitely.

Absolutely not. I worked for DWP way back when.

I was one of those who made decisions (based on the actual law and case law) on entitlement to benefit, in retrospect.

If you can read an appeal from someone who did a few hours work to buy their kids new shoes and failed to declare it, and still think it's immoral to "work on the side" and still go ahead and report them, you are not the kind of person I want to know.

Depends I suppose but I also think that unless it is you or someone in your household that you are very unlikely to have all of the facts.

Absolutely not.
My mum used to say "keep your own side of the street clean"

Love this. And no, I wouldn't either.

No.

No. Never.

There’s no context at all. It was actually from another thread about UC where the poster has been overpaid for 5 years due to undeclared savings.

I was surprised nobody had dobbed her in, as often people do.
