Someone in my town was sent this today cos they bought a caravan!
It reminded me that my old neighbour used to come out & ask me how I afforded the weekly shop, and told me he had reported me to the social, told me I was fiddling the system, asked me how I afforded my car etc.

I moved away from there in 2019, but for 9 years he asked me how I afforded everything from shopping to my car. I kept telling him that I worked full time but he didn’t believe me. One time he came out and waved the Daily Mail in face and told me that scum like me rinse tax payer
My neighbour did actually report me over and over but I was working, so I used to just get occasional letters saying they wouldn’t be investigating further lmao
He used to watch me unload the car with shopping and kids and tell me I was a fraud lol

Anyway, turned out in the end that he did it because I had a stokie accent and I was a young mum so he was absolutely convinced that I was falsely claiming benefits.
Honestly the classism disgusts me.

Money is so weird isn’t it?
You’re bullied if you’re poor, you’re seen as not good enough, you’re put under immense pressure to earn more, work more, own more, and then when you do (these people bought a used caravan), they are mercilessly attacked and criticised 🙄
