Reporting Benefit Fraud

There are several ways you can tell us about suspected benefit fraud.

Online

By phone

Textphone

By post

There has to be a good reason for investigating someone for benefit fraud, so you’ll need to give as much of the following information as possible:

• the name and address of the person you’re reporting and their partner, if they have one
• a description of the person
• the type of benefit theft you think they are committing and why you suspect them
• information about their employer, if you think they’re working
• information about their vehicle, if they have one

The information you provide is strictly confidential. You don’t have to give your name unless you want to.
