Working with ethical hackers, Rav Wilding is hunting down the scammers plaguing our lives. He uses cutting-edge technology to monitor scammers’ phone calls in an effort to stop the victims losing out to real-time scams. It’s then a race against the criminals to contact the victim and intercept the scam before any money is handed over to the crooks. The show also explores the biggest anti-social issues troubling UK neighbourhoods, such as bike theft, fly-tipping and romance scams, and Rav meets the local heroes using their own time and resources to tackle these problems head-on. And there’s everything you need to know to keep yourself safe from the scammers.
