I will talk to him - because if someone DOES report him in the future then the longer it goes on the more serious the fraud. Of course, one could always say 'Well, I've got a lot better over the last couple of months.'

Benefit fraud is a serious crime and the fact that you don't class it as such speaks volumes to me
There are many genuine claimants struggling to get their rightful benefits whilst people like "your mate" make a mockery of things.
And as an aside what about the people who are not going to get better at all but still are denied benefits they are rightly entitled to????
