“Rip Off Britain” returns this Tuesday with a timely warning for anyone buying or selling a car privately. In “Brazen car scam caught on camera,” the team reveals a shocking new scam tactic caught on camera, one that’s leaving drivers significantly out of pocket. The specifics are being kept under wraps until the episode airs, but the preview hints at a brazen level of deception that will leave viewers shaking their heads.
But the episode isn’t just about exposing wrongdoing; it’s also about exploring solutions. With cryptocurrency scams on the rise, the team brings in experts to explain what help may be available for victims. And in a truly 21st-century twist, the program features a company that has created an AI-generated “granny” designed to keep scam callers talking, wasting their time and potentially gathering information that could help authorities.
As always, “Rip Off Britain” tackles the consumer issues that matter most, from dodgy bills and unhelpful customer service to holiday headaches and food fraud. The team’s commitment to righting wrongs and empowering consumers makes it essential viewing in a world where scams seem to be around every corner. Tune in to BBC One on Tuesday, 22 April at 9:30 AM to see how the team tackles these latest threats.
