Suppose someone you know wrongly receives long-term care or benefits. Do you report this to authorities or do you prefer to look the other way to prevent problems?
Joke and Dirk, who live in a village in the north, reported fraud by their neighbor Siebe to both the municipality and the care office. This man receives a personal budget for 24-hour availability of care while living a normal life, even doing heavy work in his garden and on a farm.
The ‘clicking’ resulted in an unpleasant situation for the couple. They threatened to obstruct their view with bales of silage. In the case of Siebe, the authorities were also aware, but could not prevent the fraud from ending. While cases like this cost the treasury a lot of money.
What do you think. Should people dare to report if they know that someone they know is committing fraud? Or is it wiser to remain silent? Participate in the statement of the day and give your opinion.
