How is that even possible? Surely you need to produce birth certificates for any children you claim for?

thesheriff443 06-03-2012 09:22 AM

more than likely done on line,

no, i dont think you need them,they try to make the system easier for people to use,but then it gets abused.

Marc 06-03-2012 09:30 AM

For single mothers aged 13 who can't think for themselves

Oh really? That's stupid, you need them here. Infact for childrens allowance (which everyone is entitled to) they've even started sending out forms to all parents of kids receiving benefits asking them for the childs school and which class they're in to clamp down on people who don't even live in the country anymore but continue to claim.

Marc 06-03-2012 09:33 AM

Niamh told me she had 15 children :idc: from what I've seen she's only got 2

thesheriff443 06-03-2012 09:35 AM

its different departments,and they dont share the imformation,only when something comes to light do they investigate.

Fetch The Bolt Cutters 06-03-2012 09:35 AM

It just seems incredibly ridiculous that you wouldn't have to produce birth certs when applying though.

thesheriff443 06-03-2012 09:40 AM

true, but they always get caught in the end as this case shows.

thesheriff443 06-03-2012 09:42 AM

trust is dead!,bad pay killed him.

do they though? I know at least four mums who make a claim basing it on the fact that they have no partner yet the partner lives there and earns a wage. That way they don't have to declare his income.

Yeah but it just seems like a much more simple way to prevent it happening at all would be just produce the birth cert when applying :laugh:

Well, that's a different scenario all together, harder to prove that then prove that 10 of your children don't exist :laugh:

people would be more reluctant to do it if it meant faking an official document though, surely that'd be a serious offence in itself?

if someone wants to cheat the system they will by any means possible,
the justice system does not work! she stole 42,000 and all she got is a warning really!.

Kazanne 06-03-2012 10:00 AM

Surely the benefit system is partly to blame in this,it really needs a good shake up and get people in there who are interested in people and want to help them ,instead of signing anyone on that passes by,you cant really blame people if they can get away with such things, money for nothing seems to be the motto of the day,while we tax payers graft ,it's wrong,so glad she got found out .I hope these scroungers get sifted out the system quickly and the genuine people get the help they need.

If you are sure about that, you should report them. It's people like that who scrounge off society that prevent those who really need help from getting it. It seems having kids propels you to the top of any priority list for handouts, which is why so many people keep on having them when they can't afford to look after them without claiming benefits.

thesheriff443 06-03-2012 10:14 AM

in this country they have made it so you are better off not to work.

I'd never do such a thing, and frankly, although I don't condone what they are doing I do tend to think these people are used as scapegoats to a certain extent to keep our eyes focused away from the rich and the scams they get up to.

Divide and rule, divide and rule..

It doesn't matter what people do, what they get up to, how lazy and dishonest they are, someone, somewhere will turn it into a "Yeah, but rich people do bad stuff" argument.

Two wrongs don't make a right :nono:

The more people scamming and claiming, the higher the average working persons taxes will go and the more we'll have to struggle. Same with those politicians claiming stupid expenses and using the tax payers money, I don't like either and don't excuse one because the other does it too.
