In the wake of this debacle in the UK of today, it was unfortunately inevitable that some moron would try this;

Man who 'falsely claimed family died in Grenfell Tower' charged with fraud
A MAN has been charged with fraud after he allegedly claimed to have lost family members in the Grenfell Tower fire.

A man has been charged with fraud over alleged claims he lost family members in Grenfell Tower
Anh Nhu Nguyen, 52, has been charged with five counts of fraud over his alleged claims, according to Scotland Yard.
He has been remanded in custody and is set to appear in Westminster Magistrate’s Court on Friday.
The death toll from the disaster is expected to rise and currently stands at a presumed 80.
But the final figure may not emerge this year, police have said.

Mon, June 19, 2017
The 24-storey tower in Latimer Road, North Kensington, has been destroyed after a fire which started on the second floor rapidly spread to the top of the 120-flat block
Metropolitan Police Detective Superintendent Fiona McCormack yesterday said: "The distress and suffering caused to so many families and loved ones that night is harrowing.
"I have made it clear that we are not interested in investigating things such as sub-letting or immigration matters as I want their help and do not want there to be any hidden victims of this tragedy.
"However, we will robustly investigate any information about anyone who seeks to capitalise on the suffering of so many."

Hopefully there will be a long jail sentence allocated.

Inevitable, I suppose.

Always somebody willing to take advantage and lets hope this low life gets what he deserves.

Lets not forget that there are so many genuine people who need help.

It happens every time.Out of tragedy there are always going to be those who take adventage and see a way to make money out of it.
A bit like foreign aid given to corrupt countries in exchange for buying arms!
It really does take the weewee out of those genuine people who do suffer and need help.

Very true but it does make those in charge be a bit more careful when handing out the money.
