I think the whole welfare debate is a no win situation, especially with the economy going to hell more people are going to be defrauding the system.
Given today's economic world, this may not be a situation of fraud, but moreso a case of living beyond one's means and having the bottom fall out (job loss).

But I see what you're saying though because I do know some people who sell the use of their card for cash. It could have been that too (her using someone else's card).
