Benefit fraudster shopped by anonymous source

A Douglas man who was shopped to Treasury for cheating the benefit system will be sentenced next month. 

33-year-old Steven Menton appeared at Douglas Courthouse earlier this week where he pleaded guilty to four counts of making false representations to obtain benefits. 
 
He was caught out after an anonymous source reported that he was working in August and October last year but not declaring that his circumstances had changed. 
 
Social enquiry reports have been requested before he's sentenced on June 21st.
