A Brixton benefit fraudster who wrongly claimed nearly £40,000 in benefits from Lambeth Council will not go to prison. She had tens of thousands of pounds in bank accounts only she had access to - but still claimed she was a part-time cleaner who needed income support. She was sentenced to nine months imprisonment, suspended for two years, ordered to pay £2,500 in prosecution costs, and told to do nine months of community service.
A former Ilkeston woman was sentenced to 180 hours community service after conning the benefits system out of £30,550 by falsely claiming she lived as a single parent.
