What can be done about a know identity fraud?
wayne_freak asked:
The mother of a girl that i used to be friends with has two identities.
With one social number she has a paying job, and with the other social security number she recieves food stamps, section 8 housing and her daughter pays NOTHING for school because of all the free money she qualifies for under her moms “non-working” id.
I always felt it was wrong and wanted to report it but i felt that since she confided in me that she would know i was the one who reported it. We dont talk any longer but i am still hesitant to report it because of the severe consequences that would happen to her mom. But it still is very upsetting to me that she is taking advantage of programs that are meant for people who REALLY need it when she has a job of her own anyway. What should i do? Also what are the legal consequences if she is reported and found guilty of fraud.
What sort of information would i have to give to report it?

You need to go to social security office and police and explain it, they will then take appropriate action also the taxation depatment
You need to tell someone as this is disgusting and the reason tax is so high
good on you for doing or wanting to do the right thing
she will get a record for fraud although no jail time and community service,
you will need mainly her name and address and how you know make sure u contact all the above mentioned agencies
You don’t have to give your name either
Goodluck
