An audacious hidden camera series with Chris Hollins. An acting rogue tradesman tries to rip people off in their own homes using well-known con tricks to show us all how easy it can be to be taken in.

Essex taxi-driver Kevin is set up by his dad for a visit from our phoney electrician. Roger tries to turn a routine fuse box inspection into a full-scale pest control job, planting chewed wires and fake droppings to convince Kevin that he has mice gnawing their way into the stair cupboard.

Roger also tries to con Chris from Buckinghamshire into paying for an expensive weed-killer treatment.

Plus the story of a Trading Standards operation in Surrey that ended the fraudulent career of two garden scammers whose bag of tricks enabled them to con almost 186,000 pounds out of their victims. Show less
