The Public newspaper news this Thursday, May 14, there are several officers involved in a fraud scheme, which is to exchange your request free passes for money that employees take the ticket of the TST.
Officials of the PSP are entitled to a free pass every month to circulate in Transportes Sul do Tejo (TST). However, according to the public witnessed over the past three months, many end up never rise. Instead, they deliver requests to the employee of the ticket that instead of giving them the pass for the month, giving them money out of the box.
In the situations described, the police receive between leaflets 89 euros. 20 euros less than the value of the pass. A difference that serves as the commission for the working of the TST.
The scheme works well for both sides. The police, being in uniform, traveling without paying, but without uniform are entitled to pass. But there are some that do not require the pass. Most belong to the stations of Almada, Seixal and Setúbal, but there are already agents of Lisbon using it. TST employees are with commissions.

Although it is not aware that this kind of exchange, the company said that will raise an inquiry and that officers will no longer be able to exchange their requests to the ‘windows’. “We are in contact with the competent administrative area of the PSP so that they begin to be sold directly in Live Internet portal,” the administration of TST.
