Insurance cheats come under the spotlight of the investigators. Today, phantom passengers - an insurance company receives personal injury claims from passengers who weren’t even at the scene of the accident. A student tries to hoodwink insurers into paying out on a camera stolen during a mugging, but he slips up when he hands them a receipt dated after the supposed attack.

A restaurant worker who claimed to be injured after a ladder fell on her is taken down a rung or two when her social media posts reveal that she’s been scaling one of the highest mountains in the UK. The claim of a motorcyclist who collided with an ambulance comes crashing down when CCTV reveals he was at fault. And arson for cash – a plan to set fire to an empty trailer in return for money goes tragically wrong when a child is caught up in the blaze. Presented by Naga Munchetty. Show less
