"""A wealthy Ohio man with reported ties to Iranian royalty was collecting $300 a month in food stamp benefits and was on Medicaid, authorities said.

Ali Pascal Mahvi's 8,000 square-foot home in Russell Township was raided last week, with the Geauga County prosecutor accusing the millionaire of manipulating the system, WKYC-TV reported..

"It’s outrageous to see a situation where somebody is living in a house almost worth a million dollars, a horse barn, driving luxury cars, have millions of dollars in overseas bank accounts and here they are accepting this type of assistance," said Prosecutor James R. Flaiz.

Charges have not been filed yet against Mahvi or his wife. Their three adult children also live in the mansion, valued at more than $800,000.

The case is expected to go before a grand jury which will decide on a potential indictment.

Ali Pascal Mahvi's 8,000 square-foot home in Russell Township was raided this week.
Authorities accuse Mahvi of failing to disclose the existence of at least 14 bank accounts, including one holding $4 million in Switzerland, when he applied for the aid.

Mahvi, however, vehemently denies being wealthy, claiming the family's only income are loans from friends and church donations.

"It was our right to apply [for food stamps] and I applied," he said, arguing that the bank accounts that authorities found are old."""


I'm just glad he got caught....and, hope he has to pay every penny of it back....yeah, right.

And it ain't just the recievers, its the docs too. I read somewhere recently that the government has a Medicare/Medicaid fraud task for e that had busted medical people of various types for over $800 million in billing fraud. I think four of them were here in Oklahoma had to do with billing for counseling services.

I hope they bust them all!
They're parasites.

This ain't persactly fraud, but it's another example of the "system run amok". It ain't just us ... the Brits put up with the same b/s we have here. (these people are unemployed migrants)

A French immigrant family that voluntarily moved to Great Britain is now complaining about their housing conditions, saying the five-bedroom home they were offered courtesy of the British taxpayer is too small because it “doesn’t even have a dining room.”

The Daily Mail reports the Sube family moved from France to Britain in 2012 so the father, 33-year-old Arnold Mballe, could study mental health nursing at the University of Bedfordshire. His wife, Jeanne, is reportedly a stay-at-home mother who, like her husband, is not employed. The couple has eight children.

After having been housed by the Luton Borough Council first in a hotel and then in a small, three-bedroom house (all while continuing to have children and remaining unemployed, mind you), the family is now claiming they are being “neglected” because they haven’t been given a larger home.

When the Luton Borough Council finally found a larger house for the family, the Subes reportedly turned it down because it wasn't big enough.

From the Daily Mail:

Their youngest daughter is just three-months old but even after viewing a new, five bedroom house, the family refused this property because of the lack of storage space.

Mr Sube added, "There wasn't space for the things of ten people, it didn't even have a dining room."
According to the report, the Subes say the council is “just making excuses” not to give them a larger home, and “claim they need a property with at least six double bedrooms for them to live comfortably.”

But the Luton Borough Council doesn’t seem to be losing too much sleep over the Subes’ situation.

A spokesman from Luton Borough Council said, "Housing stock in Luton, is under constant pressure and on occasions we may have to locate families temporarily outside of Luton.

“Despite difficulties we managed to find Mr and Mrs Sube affordable housing in Luton that is large enough to house them and their eight children.

“After a generous offer on our part, we have done our bit and if housing is offered and declined without, what we judge, good reason, then we will offer the property to another family."

What Muddy posted is definitely fraud. Failing to disclose assets in order to receive public assistence is criminal same as doctors doing false billings to get Medicare/Medicaid payments from the government.

People bitching that they help they are getting isn't good enough is not.
