    Wkdwll, you have reported the fraud, just leave it at that. It takes months for anything to happen, they will be watching them,
    filming them and going into records that the couple are not aware of. She will get a letter to go in and be interviewed under caution.

    I would just get on with your own life now.

    And I agree with you. Ive worked 45 years out of my 47 years of working life, and it irritates me beyong measre that these thieves and scroungers milk the system. I applaud yo and I would do it in a heartbeat.

    The others that condone it well, it speaks volumes of them doesnt it.

    tbh most people dont condone it but then again very few are in possession of ALL the facts,i doubt even the OP knows as much as they think
    99% of fraud reports are malicious FACT,why the OP feels the need to come here and boast of doing their duty is completely beyond me.

    Have you a link to that information please?
  • Is this true? My IP changes every time I unplug the router (I think). The last time I checked my IP, I was apparently in Saudi Arabia and not in damp and grey North West of England. Would be interested to hear if I can actually be tracked by my IP.

    if you have broadband you will almost certainly have a static ip address,in the old days of dial up you were assigned a different ip each time you signed on
    to check your ip type cmd(in search progs and files)then in the black window type ipconfig(all one word)

    I'm sorry but there was no boasting from me, I was asking a question.
