Disability Allowance Scam

A man who claimed £17,000 of disability living allowance between 1994 and 2005, and £43,000 of incapacity benefit between 1996 and 2005 has walked away from court with a suspended jail sentence. The man, who claimed that it taken him 10 minutes to walk 50 yards and suffered from limited movement, was not only a pall bearer at a funeral, he was a bowls club president and had just opened his own taxi firm.

He was convicted of six counts relating to false claims of disability living allowance and incapacity benefit.
