Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One WestLatest broadcast: on BBC One Northern Ireland

Gloria Hunniford, Angela Rippon and Julia Somerville reveal how a particularly nasty scam could at last have been stopped in its tracks and unravel an elaborate con that saw a woman tricked into believing she was working undercover for the police, persuaded she was helping them catch the very fraudsters targeting her money.

There is also the story of how a couple who paid to put their belongings into storage never saw them again - thanks to a man who's left a number of customers without their most treasured possessions.

Plus there is resolution for a woman out of pocket after trusting an antiques expert to sell her family silver, and the team opens up its annual pop-up shop, solving problems on the spot. Show less
