    I wouldn't report her , unless you're certain and not misunderstood there are a lot of people out there living a lie or beyond their means . For example how do you know for certain she owns this new car? I think anyone who commits benefit fraud always gets caught out in the end why risk it if you're wrong?

    That's a very naive view to have.

    Best you read the thread (the OP is the jealous new girlfriend) ...although why you think it would be a normal or sane act to send a threatening and anonymous letter to ANYONE is beyond the understanding of anyone with a shred of decency.

    Probably not my best idea, and obviously I didn't read the thread properly.

    So on that basis I'm insane, not normal, not decent, stalkerish and cowardly.
    According to you, who seem to know me so well.

    Maybe we all have elements of these in us. You included.

    Maybe you could tone down your unkind judgements.

    Edit Just for the record I was not suggesting a threatening letter at all. Just factual.

    I wonder if you'd be so hostile if you were not able to hide behind your anonymity.

    Maybe I am! But I believe in FACTS not rumours, from what I see in the media these days they government seems to be coming down hard on benefit fraud

    I've been Money Tipped! Debt-free and Proud!
    As a single parent myself, i say REPORT!
    People claiming as single when they are actually not, get my goat and increase the already unfair stigma associated with being a single parent.

    Please report it!
