Hi and Welcome to the forum, you might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explain where everything is

Welcome to Benefits and Work

I'm sorry that you have had to find us under such worrying circumstances These investigations are often triggered by a 'tip off', sometimes anonymous. As you have been told it is an 'interview under caution' you should certainly take it seriously and I advise that you take legal advice beforehand (and have a legal representative with you during the interview). You should try and find someone who has experience with benefits law, try doing an internet search in your local area.
