This seems like a poorly thought out comment: the point of UBI is that everyone is signed up for it. Everyone gets it and that simplicity makes it far easier to audit. AFAIK, having only ever read about India online, everyone has a biometric-backed ID already, making it easier to link payments to individuals. Another anticipated benefit of UBI is that once people are out of desperate poverty there is less incentive to cheat. (We have seen that paying police officers a living wage is one way of reducing police asking for bribes: I imagine that a similar dynamic would be at play with UBI)
