Series looking at benefit fraud. Fraud investigators reveal how a family who seemed to have hit hard times were hiding a wealth of property, unpaid tax and fraudulent claims.

Life for the Coffey family was tough; their father and son paving business was bringing in little money, and Mrs Coffey and her daughters lived on government hand outs. But, as Matt discovers when he meets fraud investigators, this little set-up was hiding a wealth of property, unpaid tax and fraudulent benefit claims.

And we meet Jack who, while struggling to care for his wife at their home, was given the green light for a grant to adapt their home to make life easier. But when his beloved wife died, Jack was left with little financial support and the grant was withdrawn.
