British lottery winner claimed benefits while living in Spain
From theolivepress.es
Quote:
Lawrence Candlish, 38, became one of the top 100 richest young people in the UK when he scooped €7 million in 1997.
He subsequently moved to Spain where he bought a Newcastle United-themed villa ...
... he continued to fraudulently claim €16,600 in disability living allowance in the UK.

You don't need to be a millionnaire to do it -
Start a company, pay yourself a minimum salary, live off expenses and...boom
..you and your offspring are entitled to all kinds of welfare goodies in addition to payng zero income tax

A friend of mine has all his assert held by a offshore company in the Cayman islands, legally nothing is directly held in his name in the UK. Which was shock to his ex wife during the divorce who thought she was going to take him to the cleaners, she really regretted saying 'I only married you for money' she got nothing and is living on benefits now.
He owns over 10,000 acres of farmland and several companies.
