Rogue Claimers: Episode 17 (5STAR, Tuesday, March 11, 2025)

Channel 5 Numeric

There’s a certain morbid fascination with watching people try to get away with something – especially when it involves insurance fraud. 5STAR’s “Rogue Claimers” feeds that fascination, offering a daily dose of deceit and the inevitable comeuppance. This Tuesday’s episode looks to continue that tradition, featuring two particularly audacious attempts to game the system.

First up is a couple who claim they were victims of a knifepoint burglary. Their story sounds convincing at first, filled with the expected details of a terrifying home invasion. However, as the investigation progresses, the cracks in their narrative begin to show. The truth, as they say, has a way of coming out, and for this couple, it’s caught on camera.

Meanwhile, CCTV footage exposes a cyclist pulling a fast one on a brewery. What appears to be an accident is revealed as a deliberate act. This episode is a case study in how insurance companies and investigators deploy their resouces to uncover and unravel fraudulent insurance claims.

“Rogue Claimers” airs Tuesday, March 11th at 5:00 PM on 5STAR. For those who enjoy watching justice served, it’s an hour well spent.
