Dominic Littlewood presents a series looking at the work of fraud investigators searching out benefit thieves and meets the people they are stealing from - the genuine claimants.

Single mum Rachel is a 40-year-old with a head for business. Over the past six years she's made a packet from renting buying and selling a portfolio of five properties - whilst raking in tens of thousands by working as a high-class escort.

Plus we meet Queenie, whose hopes for a happy retirement were shattered when her health took a turn for the worse and she started having blackouts. Can she be helped? Show less
