“Scam Interceptors” presents a tense race against con artists who are impersonating law enforcement. Airing Thursday on BBC One, “Don’t Buy Those Cards!” features a young London couple caught in a frightening web of deception. The scammers, posing as National Crime Agency officers, have fabricated a believable story that implicates the couple in a bogus investigation.
As the scammers’ demands grow, the couple faces increasing pressure to comply, risking their financial security. The interceptors dispatch a ground team, tracking the couple as they attempt to follow the scammers’ instructions. The chase culminates in a local supermarket, where the interceptors hope to intervene before the couple loses everything.
Rav Wilding leads the operation, deploying ethical hackers and advanced technology to thwart the scam. “Scam Interceptors” goes beyond simply exposing fraud; it actively works to protect victims. Tune in to BBC One on Thursday, 8 May at 2:00 PM GMT to see if the team can stop the scam in time.
