Insurance cheats come under the spotlight of the investigators. Today, a career criminal who masterminded an insurance racket worth £250,000 is put back behind bars after investigators expose his wrongdoing. A woman claiming tens of thousands of pounds for an injury caused by a faulty shoe is tripped up by her own evidence and the investigators who stay hot on her heels. A couple who put in a phoney injury claim for £30,000 see the wheels come off their case when their story doesn’t add up. A wedding photographer’s dodgy claim for ruined camera kit is exposed as a lie, and a traveller misses his flight due to a puncture on the way to the airport, but his claim falls flat when he submits a forged receipt for his new tyres from a garage.
