Benefits - fraud investigation
It is estimated that every year benefit cheats cost the country around £0.9 billion in stolen benefits.
This is money that could be spent on improving services for people in real need and it's your taxes that are paying for their luxuries.
Benefit thieves cost the council money each year in fraudulently claimed housing and council tax benefit.
Watford Borough Council is determined to stamp out fraud and has a dedicated fraud investigations team committed to preventing, detecting and putting an end to housing benefit and council tax benefit fraud.
All investigations are carried out with integrity and in a professional manner by trained and qualified staff. For more information please view the related items.
