英国就业和养老金部（DWP）警告称，由于英国社会欺骗倾向日益增强，福利欺诈不会回到疫情前的水平。 The UK's Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) warns that benefit fraud will not return to pre-pandemic levels, due to an increasing propensity for deceit across British society. DWP 的年度报告显示，欺诈和错误率预计每年将上升 5%。 The DWP's annual report revealed that fraud and error rates are expected to rise by 5% per year. 2023-24 年期间，福利超额支付占福利总支出的 3.7%，而 2022-23 年为 3.6%。 During 2023-24, benefit overpayments accounted for 3.7% of total benefit expenditure, compared to 3.6% in 2022-23. DWP 报告强调，针对组织的欺诈行为长期呈上升趋势，商店偷窃行为明显增加，而对福利欺诈的态度有所软化。 The DWP report highlights a long-term increasing trend in levels of fraud against organisations, a notable uptick in shoplifting, and softened attitudes towards benefits fiddling.
