If I found out the person's name myself I wouldnt need the police anyway. I plan on dealing with the matter myself. They will think twice before they try and report me again, thats for sure. Yeh I feel myself thinking about all my friends in my head, and who could have done it. I just dont know. Some people I havent seen for months, and many dont know that I'm on benefits. Im going to contact Citizen's Bureau, I may have to pop into their office though, they never answer their phones, all day long! Anyway, called the Jobcentre customer compliance department today. They said its all over, but they still didnt tell me if I have been judged innocent. I was also told that it wasnt true that I would be watched, yet the lady at the interview clearly said to me I may be watched, and my bank account would be looked into. She denied all of it. I wish I had a lawyer with me! I then called the benefit fraud hotline, and they were no help either. I feel like I am guilty! I am just really stressed out and upset all the time, I need closure.

Hi, new to this site. I'm relly stressed out because two days ago I was called into the jobcentre on the premise of a 'review'. I was taken into a room and it turns out some idiot has reported me for working whilst claming benefits. (I WISH I had a job lol). I do voluntary work regularly, which I have declared to the jobcentre, so thats not a problem. Anyway, I wasnt really told what would happen next, just that I 'may' have surveillance on me, but im guessing they have already watched me, because they have tipped me off now if I WAS working. I have absolutely no clue who reported me. Not many people even know im on benefits. I live at home, so most people probably think my dad pays my way. Is there anything I can do, because this is obviously a false accusation? I'm not having people reporting me and getting away with it. I want to look this person in the eyes, in court if thats possible. My name is also foreign-sounding, so only someone I know would remember it to report me. Most people cant even say my name, nevermind spell it to report me. Will going to the police help? I just want some closure. I keep getting upset about it. The irony of all this is I am 22 and havent even had my first job yet, how I wish I even had a job to lie about! Any info is appreciated.
