Benefit Fraud is wrong and in my eyes. Why are people trying to scam the benefit system? Are they just being greedy?Benefit Fraud is a criminal offence that occurs when somebody knowingly receives Benefit when they are not entitled to it. People who commit fraud can be prosecuted and, if convicted, will have a criminal record. People commit benefit fraud, by working whilst claiming benefits without notifying the information to the benefit system, claiming they are a single person but actually live with a partner or people who do not give the correct information about their full income such as savings.
When people commit benefit fraud, they don't seem to realize that they are stealing money from people who genuinely need it to survive. Is benefit fraud some sort of addiction? Do people get an adrenaline rush when they get away with it the first time? People, who are thinking about commit this crime, don’t because when you start you may not want to stop.
