Consumer stories with Lucy and Rhodri Owen.

An X-Ray investigation highlights an illegal moneymaking scheme which is spreading like wildfire across South Wales. The Key to a Fortune scheme attracts potential investors by telling them that if they invest 3,000 pounds, they're guaranteed a return of 20,000 pounds on their investment. What's more, it claims to be legitimate because it's been vetted by solicitors and makes donations to charity.

Lucy visits a car auction in Newport and has top tips on how to bag a bargain when buying a second hand car. Plus, according to her phone bill, Sian Postle from Aberdare has dialled the speaking clock 1,657 times! Rhodri finds out whether the Postles are the most punctual family in Wales, or if a mistake's been made. Show less
