Re: Conwy sisters tried to claim £161m in VAT, court hears
From the original report.
Quote:
Mr Taylor said working tax credit for people with lower incomes was "particularly easy to cheat" and civil servants "inept".
"They didn't make any inquiries, they didn't ask any questions," he added.
He told the jury: "You may be shocked to hear that all you had to do was pick up the phone and get through to the tax credit helpline and say 'the situation is still the same - I'm still working' and the money carried on".
