There will always be reasons people come up with to cheat the system, similarly there will be people who fall through the net and never get the help they are legally entitled to. But there's no excuse for stealing, and fraudulently claiming benefits is theft. If the OP feels she can't stand by and watch someone commit fraud, she shouldn't keep quiet just because she may not be perfect herself.
