no offence meant but why arent you saying this to all the others jumping on my back?
to everyone if you suspected fraud from anyone other than your family, wouldnt you want to do something about it?
i honestly dont think any of you would be "talking" like this if i hadnt said they were family.

You have been advised several times to report it, there is no more you can do, unless you want to earn extra brownie points with the other family. You will never know if they are on the fiddle, so instead of shouting the odds about it, perhaps do as you have been advised.

If you suspect anyone of any wrong doing it is up to you whether to report it to the appropriate authorities or not. Whatever the rights or wrongs they will investigate it. The only thing you need to do is to decide whether or not to report your suspicions.

just because thats how your family works, if it wasnt anything to do with us why would they tell us?

Tell you what?

Their income? Lets face it if they are claiming fraudulently and bragging about their income then they are pretty stupid and it wont be long before they are caught.

Ok Rach, lets put it this way - did you ever hear the old saying about making a rod for your own back? Sometimes it is best to let someone else do the snitching when close family are concerned. Think about long term consequences if it all blows up in your face - at least by taking a step back & letting someone else do the worrying about thier affairs there will be no comeback on you.

And try and remember discussions like this can have a habit of getting into the wrong hands in incriminating people.

Rach you are missing the point - just because it's family doesn't make it your personal business.

I think you'll find i was keeping on topic - you were the one wandering off on a child abuse debate.

Yes that is correct, our thoughts on the situation. You didn't like our thoughts though.

rach! no one can tell you if they are on the fiddle, because we do not know the in's and out's of their income, you suspect they are on the fiddle...well that enough for you to pick up the phone. Simple really i would have thought.

honestly? im not too bothered if they see this, as you will obviously already have worked out one of them is blood the other is not, if i asked the blood relative i would get i dont know and i honestly believe they dont as the other party keeps everything from them, and the other party i know is a member on here so that shows how much i dont care if they know im asking.
i dont believe how the non blood relative "makes" the blood relative live, just because thats the way they were brought up, everythign a con
insurance companies, benefits, banks, catalogues etc etc
honestly god knows how they get away with it so many times but they do
and i only wish i had all insurance company details all catalogue details etc because then i would something needs to be done to stop before the non blood relative gets into trouble and brings the blood relative down with them.
