Claimed and Shamed is back for its eighth series, exposing even more insurance fraudsters lying on the phone or caught out on camera. The series highlights the extraordinary and often ridiculous lengths some people go to in order to try and receive a bumper payout.

The Insurance Fraud Enforcement Department are the on the hunt for a gang of fraudsters attempting to scam thousands of pounds out of insurance companies using a broken down ice cream van, a prisoner hasn't learnt any lessons in good behaviour as she tries to lie her way to an insurance payout, and a traveller's harrowing account of being attacked and robbed at gunpoint whilst travelling in Tanzania turns out to be a total fabrication. Also, an insurance company cries 'foul' when social media exposes a footballer's attempts to kick-off a fraudulent personal injury claim, and an American woman's evil plan to cash in on her husband's million-dollar life insurance policy is thwarted thanks to some extraordinary hidden camera footage.
