Well, fighting benefit fraud is potentially an easier task, for one thing. Very, very few people are going to be sympathetic to a charity thief, whereas there are plenty of tax evader sympathizers out there. So in terms of sheer public relations, they're getting more bang for the buck by going after the charity frauds.

Of course, they'd eventually get more revenue recovered by going after the tax frauds, but that would involve a geometrically much larger enforcement effort- which would cost money in itself- and expose, no doubt, a lot of prominent members of society who, by extension, dissuade this sort of attention thru the strings they are able to pull.
