    This is an open forum ~ you post things like you have and you will get replies, nor can you tell anyone not to!

    If couple 1 are so concerned then I suggest that they take matters into their own hands and dont invole you.

    Unless you have serious evidence that couple 2 are on the fiddle I suggest that you and couple 1 (assuming you are different) keep your beaks out :grin:
    keep our beaks out and no by the way we arent the same people
    it is our family so it is our business, its not like i have had to dig, they brag that they have this money coming in and that money coming in they brag that they have done this insurance scam and that insurance scam, i dont understand why because its family you tell me to mind my own business if it was someone i wasnt related to would you all be saying the same? i doubt it, oh and for the record i wouldnt care less if they are asking about me on a forum or anything because i wouldnt do anything untoward anyway so i arent in the wrong.

    You sound hell bent on finding out, what will you do if they (your family) is commiting fraud?
    hell bent? no, and if i think they are after getting some advice(which only 2 replies so far seem to be) i will do the right thing, i dont understand why because its family you seem to think i shouldnt, if it were a stranger i believed to be doing wrong im pretty sure you'd all be saying shop em to the fraud section etc.

    They can do it without internet access. What is helping you snoop into there affairs on the net? This forum? You asked for our thoughts, not answers.
    You say 'it's your family' it's your business, why are you sharing it with over 3000 people on the net. Are you expecting us all to clap and say yes they are commiting fraud, go shop them now!
    You can't think very much of your family members.

    The thing is Rach this is a forum to help people and not to judge. However, if you believe someone is doing something unlawful it is up to you whether to report them or not. You could always approach them (especially as they are your family) and ask outright if they are breaking the law.;)

    rach! if you suspect there is any form of fraud going on whatsoever just pick up the phone and call the relevant people and leave it at that.

    You don't need to know anymore information.

    Well it's your family. Get some professional person to look into their affairs, i'm sure you and couple 1 will be delighted if they are in fact commiting fraud.

    you want the truth? well no i dont think very much of her. i asked what you thought of the figures etc not what you thought of my finding out about my familys situations.
    they cant do it because they dont have a telephone, internet access and wouldnt know where to start i on the other hand do.
    this is just one avenue i am taking.
    i normally find this forum very helpful, but im not sure i will be visiting this area of it again once this thread is finished with.

    I'm afraid that just because they are your family doesn't automatically make it your business.
