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.

A man charged with illegally selling bogus insurance policies goes on the run after his home is raided by the Insurance Fraud Enforcement Department. A sportswoman's claim for loss of earnings falters at the start line when an Internet search reveals she's been competing all along, and a man's attempt to commit insurance fraud by staging a car crash fails to get out of first gear. An opportunist learns that it's hard to get money in compensation for falling over when CCTV footage shows that you remained on your feet the entire time, and a personal injury claim is knocked back when phone call recordings reveal the claimant admitted, not once but twice, to her insurance company that she wasn't hurt in any way.
