I have heard this fraud is really easy to do if you go into those little stores owned by the foreigners.
I know if you go into a regular grocery store, there is no way something will get by because if you do make a purchase for an item not covered by food stamps, the register tells you how much you owe for that product.
If their food stamp card also contains their welfare money, they can get cash back. Which they then go use for lottery tickets, booze and cigs. Happens every day in Memphis.
Ok, if you are talking about food stamps(which are not really stamps any longer)that’s true, but cash aid comes in the form of a debit card which can be used at ATMs for cash, which can be used for anything the welfare recipient wishes to buy, including booze and smokes, or illegal drugs. Cash aid is given to people with children, the more kids, the more cash. At least that is how it works in CA.
