Maybe ? I am wrong ? However around whenever Benefit Fraud ads are carried by either T/V or newspapers. Only one tpye of person is depicted. White Male. Have any other NSC users found the same?:albion:

Nuh. The one that was on TV relatively recently had a whole host of people going to work/illegal DVDing etc while claiming - of all sorts of origins - female, male, black, white, orange, old, young etc. Ended with the "we're watching you" then the phone number.

I know the advert to which you refer and I would agree that you have a point. However I can't honestly say I think there was any real agenda there and the person's ethnic origin is really a coincidence.

Fraud is fraud and cost tax payers a fortune.

Wouldn't worry about the ethics of an advert. Watching that recent series on BBC1 it appears that a fair few people claim benefit fraudulently.
