I wonder why their auditors don't make a point of examining all
multiple
claims for the same person, above some reasonable threshold (a couple
of
dozen a year, perhaps).
You would hope they are doing, after the first high profile fraud
revealed
(in the courts) a few weeks ago. Presumably these cases take quite a few
months to come to trial?
So they would audit everybody claiming over about £50 a year.
Not £50, people making large numbers of claims. They have the figures, so
perhaps just the 1% of "top claimants".
And how much does each audit cost.
All it involves is getting a list of names, addresses and claims, sorted
by the number of claims. Then skim off the top (say) 1%.
Hardly cost effective, why not spend the money stopping the bloody delys
in the first place.
Surely you can agree that having a close look at anyone claiming more than
365 times a year would be a good thing?

But making 365 claims a year would be in excess of £1000, not what was
suggested.
