The Real Hustle

Series 9: Celebrity Scammers

Episode 3: The Double Whammy

Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC ThreeLatest broadcast: on BBC Three

Hustlers Alex Conran, Jess Clement and Paul Wilson lift the lid on the most devious scams to target the British public. They are joined by celebrity guests who are thrown in at the deep end to become a part of the team without any training or preparation.

Former Blue Peter presenter Zoe Salmon goes undercover as a Department for Transport officer. Together with the hustlers she stakes out a secondhand car sale, then swoops in to intercept the buyer. Can she convince the marks they have just bought a dodgy motor and drive it away from under their noses in the Double Whammy scam?

Jess shows off her spiritual side as Madama Suzie in the Phoney Psychic scam. She demonstrates that she knows a frightening amount of personal information about people she has only just met, and how anyone could fall prey to hi-tech identity theft. Show less
