In this episode, the scandal of the fake charity collections taking advantage of your generosity - we see for ourselves how it's done, and how it's costing legitimate charities millions. 

Also, the chip shops shifting fake fish, and the perils of not knowing what you are eating. Plus the fake firework-bangers being sold to schoolchildren, which are both illegal and dangerous.

Since the making of this programme, Macmillan Cancer Support have asked us to point out that they do now make home clothing collections.
