Dudley Council takes benefit theft very seriously. Although the vast majority of people who claim benefits are honest, those who steal benefits are picking the pockets of law-abiding taxpayers
Latest figures from the Department for Work and Pensions show that benefit thieves stole an estimated £900 million from public funds nationally, that's why we are determined to catch them.
