Eastern European migrants are being offered expert help to illegally drain the UK benefits system, according to the Daily Mail.

The Bulgarian 24 Chassa (24 Hours) daily cites the article, which stresses that the Mail on Sunday undercover investigation has revealed the said help was provided by an accountants agency in North London, run by a 37-year-old Bulgarian businessman.

The Mail's reporter, posing as a newly arrived Bulgarian migrant seeking to claim benefits, was filmed being illegally offered fake documents to support her application by the above 'advice' agency.

Two female employees, Galia and Nina, spoke to her for around 45 minutes and much of their advice was legal and correct, the Mail writes.

But they also told her they could draw up bogus paperwork, falsely stating she had cleaned both their houses to back up a housing benefit claim.

The report comes on heels of labor restrictions being lifted across European Union for workers from the EU's two poorest nations, Bulgaria and Romania, and amid mass hysteria, particularly in the UK, that they will syphon the benefits system and commit crimes.
