    why is it when some one comes on here to ask for a simple thing,. they have to explain their life story,.

    and i see most replys are tipping on the benefits fraud side of things,. as a tax payer this is a question i ask if no one was claiming would the gov/ give it me back or lower taxes answer no,. so if some one is doing the fraud and running the risk of system then fair play to them,.

    anyways the amount of money the gov/ wastes a year is a hell of alot of money,.

    no,. but if ppl think she is playing the system, why are they giving her advice, my view is dont help on things like this if u got a problem with ppl making false claims with the info ur giving them,.. after all if a person is truthful about their claim he/she can simple ask every thing at the jobcenter, not on a msg board and it seems like shes stumbled on her story line,. which is amusing :)

    I have a problem with ppl making false claims so i dont reply to these types of posts with the needed info/
    If they find the info else where (not from me) then good for them,.
    dont get me wrong if some one i know needed the info/ cuz they where really entitled to it i would help them with the info, or a way to get hte right info

    yes fair enough but if people want to give advice then thats their parogotive(sp?) and not everyone is nasty, people were just trying to get her to see it from the other side of the coin, and tell her she could be in trouble.
    She has posted for advice and it has been given, thats what this site is all about, most people post on her as they know they will get advice from a wide selection of people.
    maybe you dont want to post advice on people stopping fraud but thats your choice, there are many who do.
