BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Rent Trap; Fake Banking App Scam; Theatre Behaviour

Warning about a new kind of scam involving fake banking apps and the rise of bad behaviour at theatres.

We hear the story of a woman stuck in a three year tenancy agreement with her abusive ex-partner. She's left the property but is trapped in the contract and paying rent. We also talk to Judith Vickress from Standing Together Against Domestic Abuse explains about why this is a wider issue and what people should be aware of when signing tenancy agreements.

There's a new kind of scam involving very convincing fake bank apps. After a listener got in touch about how they almost fell for the scam at a cash point at a motorway service station Shari Vahl reports on how the scam works and what to look out for. 

And after another outbreak of unruly behaviour at a Manchester theatre - there have been others at theatres across the UK this year - we look into what's changed in audience behaviour and the theatre going experience.  

PRESENTER - WINIFRED ROBINSON 
PRODUCER - CATHERINE EARLAM

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
