Mmm... As an ex Policeman who signed the Official Secrets Act when I left I am unable to share any stories relating to the title of this thread due to risk of being arrested!!

Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

On the other hand, there are people who would pay for that!

Chris Davies, MP for Brecon and Radnorshire, is accused of two offences of forgery and one of providing false or misleading information for allowance claims.

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said he was due to appear before Westminster magistrates in March." (BBC website)

mine weren't quite on the scale of criminal investigation, but scams included :

Charging for the Dartford Toll, when you'd actually swerved it.
Private car Mileage (++)
Sleeping in the van and submitting a fabricated receipt for a B&B

I have a few police friends.

One of them said (1970's) "Don't hand any cash into Lost Property, because that'll go towards the police Christmas do"

Another (retired) said he never disclosed his previous employment to the police, in case of retribution.

I know of other village police who regularly made check-ups on divorcees to see they were 'looked after'
