BBC One - Rip Off Britain, Series 15, Threatened with a knife by an airport parking firm

The police officer who brought one dangerous rogue operator to book.

Using an airport meet and greet company might sound like a convenient service, but not this one. We hear from the police officer who brought one dangerous rogue operator to book.

The sellers dogged by scammers on one of the biggest social media platforms – is enough being done to stop the fraudsters, and could you spot a real buyer from a fake one? Also on the programme, what could be more British than the humble postage stamp? Well, some of our viewers have been stung by cynical counterfeiters, who are faking stamps and putting them up for sale on one of the world’s biggest online shopping platforms in a bid to cash in. For some, it’s had devastating consequences. And using an airport meet and greet company might sound like a convenient service, but not this one. We hear from the police officer who brought one dangerous rogue operator to book using whatever means he could. All that, plus tech expert David McClelland delves into the world of deep fake scams – giving Gloria Hunniford the shock of her life!
