    Oh the niavity of the young.

    If they did that the whole benefits budget would be swallowed by investigations. I kid you not.

    They only way an alarm like you describe is triggered is when the central register database field overflows. Normally, they just reset it to zero.

    I suggest that this guy was caught because he was flaunting it.

    Sheet, they're regularly catching OAPs claiming their long dead parents state pension. So you'd think they should have a check in the database
    if age > number in guiness book of records
    raise alarm

    When they do checks by having a warm body stood at the Post Office checking people collecting pensions they actually save 5 times more than the cost of that persons wages for the month! And that is just by disuading people to collect, not actually catching anyone.

    IIRC there are 4 times as many pensions paid out as real pensioners who claim the state pension...
