In 2013, RTL Nieuws revealed that Bulgarian migrants had been taking advantage of the Dutch social welfare system. A number of Bulgarian citizens were encouraged by a gang to briefly register at an address in the Netherlands and to retroactively apply for a €6000–8000 health care and housing allowance. At the time, the tax authorities paid allowances immediately and checked eligibility afterwards, at which point the Bulgarians had already left the country.[11]
