no more benefits.

maybe no more benefits ever

criminal conviction

once they're on to you, that's it. they can access tax, bank records, and they may have someone who has been tailing you.

sorry, 'tailing the offender'
Yikes, juanking is pretty much right in an urban myth sort of way, but usually there has to be a reason for the benefit's agency to investigate a potentially fraudulent claim, like you appear on a TV reality show.
Or you grass them up.
they will let you carry on for maybe a year in order to make the prosecution profitable enough. you are given enough rope to hang yourself with. then you will get a fraud trigger tagged onto your benefit records for life.
They can claim the money back too. Possible prison sentence if it's severe enough.

The fact of the matter is i live alone. my other half owns his own house. We are too unstable to move in together and i don't want to disrupt my childrens lives more than splitting from there father already has. He leaves his car at my house to make people think he is there. I think i may see citizens advice about it. He has consulted a solicitor as it is slandering his name. I know who has told the DSS. She hates me and has reveled in telling people what she has done.
get all your facts correct, dates, times, both of you. get legal aid lawyer.
