Giving people an monetary incentive to rat on each other for something a large slice of the population engages in (to varying extents) almost always increases distrust and dysfunction in society. You can sometimes get away with it in some places where trust of government is very high and allegiance to local community is very low but Greece is not one of those places. Right now one of Greece's problems is too little trust in government (part of why people feel justified dodging taxes). Incentives like you described would be counterproductive.
