0:00:00 > 0:00:04This is The Real Hustle: New Recruits.
0:00:05 > 0:00:09The Hustlers are back. This time, they've brought in two new faces
0:00:09 > 0:00:11to help them with their scams.
0:00:11 > 0:00:15New recruits Polly and Jazz
0:00:15 > 0:00:20join original hustlers Paul, Jess and Alex.
0:00:20 > 0:00:26Working together as a team, they'll carry out scams that are more cunning and devious than ever.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30On tonight's show:
0:00:30 > 0:00:32Jazz is a little lost...
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Are you expecting a parcel today?
0:00:34 > 0:00:36Polly shakes on it...
0:00:36 > 0:00:38Deal, deal, deal, deal.
0:00:38 > 0:00:42And Justin and Colin pick someone's lucky number.
0:00:42 > 0:00:43The big cheese in the room is...
0:00:43 > 0:00:45It's ticket number three!
0:01:28 > 0:01:32The Hustlers have invited celebrity friends to help them with their scams.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35They'll be thrown in at the deep end.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37No training and no practice.
0:01:37 > 0:01:38Just straight in.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43Today's celebrity guest hustlers
0:01:43 > 0:01:47are TV presenters and interior decorating experts Justin and Colin.
0:01:52 > 0:01:57It's a beautiful part of Scotland, an absolutely glorious house which I want to own.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00You feel instantly to the manor born, don't you?
0:02:00 > 0:02:03There should be an intelligent ruse behind all this.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07The nice thing about the programme is it's not nasty.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10That's why we want to be involved. It's very clever.
0:02:10 > 0:02:16What's exciting about this is that theoretically, we can help people that are watching
0:02:16 > 0:02:18avoid this type of scam, whatever it is.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20I like your way of looking at it.
0:02:20 > 0:02:24We're not scamming, it's a public service we're doing today!
0:02:24 > 0:02:27They're about to find out what's expected of them today
0:02:27 > 0:02:28from the lord of the manor.
0:02:28 > 0:02:34- Hello, welcome.- Good to see you. - How are you? Step in.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37- Do you like what I've done with my place?- Looks great!
0:02:37 > 0:02:39- Maybe one head too many! - One too many?
0:02:39 > 0:02:43- You're looking very lord of the manor!- Well, that's why we're here.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47- Today, the three of us will be country gentlemen.- Good stuff.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50We are going to put someone in a tricky situation
0:02:50 > 0:02:54and we'll offer them something difficult to refuse!
0:02:54 > 0:02:58Let me show you around and we'll start scamming! Come on.
0:02:58 > 0:03:02It's up the grand stairway to find out more in...
0:03:05 > 0:03:09There's a gathering happening at this country estate today.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11This is the mark.
0:03:11 > 0:03:16She's been invited to attend, but hasn't been told what the occasion is.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18Hi. Are you here for the meeting?
0:03:22 > 0:03:26- Which one's Kennedy?- Me. - Do you want to just follow me?
0:03:26 > 0:03:30Jess takes the mark and her friend upstairs for the meeting.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Take a seat just here.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37Everyone's here now, so thanks for your patience.
0:03:37 > 0:03:42I'll go and get Ian and he can explain everything for you. OK?
0:03:42 > 0:03:47Here comes Alex to explain to the gathered crowd what's going on.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49Ah, there's everybody.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Hello. Welcome. Thank you for coming.
0:03:51 > 0:03:56Before we start, can I ask anybody whose name is Kennedy to put their hand up.
0:03:56 > 0:04:02As you can see, many of you have the last name of Kennedy. There's a particular reason for that.
0:04:02 > 0:04:07One of you may be able to help me here in this room.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09All I need is a bit more detail about yourselves.
0:04:09 > 0:04:14I don't want to get something for nothing, so we've laid on this raffle here.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17So everybody will leave with something.
0:04:17 > 0:04:23Thank you for giving up your time. Have a nice, enjoyable afternoon.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24I'll leave you with that.
0:04:24 > 0:04:29So the lord of the manor is looking for someone with a specific personal background.
0:04:29 > 0:04:34Everyone is asked to fill in a form with their family history.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Fill in as much detail as you can. That's brilliant.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41It's an unusual situation, but they'll all get a nice reward from Alex's raffle.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44- OK?- Thank you very much. - You're welcome.
0:04:44 > 0:04:49But Jess doesn't put the mark's ticket in the bowl. She hides it underneath.
0:04:49 > 0:04:55For our raffle draw, we've got our neighbours who'll be hosting it for us today.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Come on through!
0:04:58 > 0:05:00This is where Justin and Colin come in.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03- Good luck, everyone! - There's some great prizes there.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07They pose as neighbouring landowners who've agreed to host the raffle.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10A big Sony flat-screen television there.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Jess needs to pass Justin the raffle bowl,
0:05:12 > 0:05:16without anyone seeing the concealed stub underneath.
0:05:16 > 0:05:21Colin's job is to distract the audience at the crucial moment.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23- Ready to start the prize raffle? - Ready.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28- And there it goes. - Who's the lucky winner?
0:05:28 > 0:05:32You look a bit lucky to me, as well!
0:05:32 > 0:05:36Now for the raffle. The prizes are pretty impressive.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40The first prize is the two-week five-star holiday in Barbados.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44Nine. Zero-nine.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47Congratulations!
0:05:48 > 0:05:53The second prize is a 200cc scooter plus accessories.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55- Fantastic.- You look like an Italian panna nero.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58Number two.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03But the next prize doesn't sound quite as exciting.
0:06:03 > 0:06:09The third prize is the cheese-making weekend for two in Shropshire.
0:06:09 > 0:06:14That might not sound exciting, but it's a real procedure to make good cheese.
0:06:14 > 0:06:20It's now down to the guest hustlers to make sure the mark wins the booby prize.
0:06:20 > 0:06:25Justin slips out the concealed stub from under the vase and hands it to Colin.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27The big cheese in the room is...
0:06:27 > 0:06:29ticket number three.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34- We have a winner.- Well done!
0:06:34 > 0:06:38- Shropshire is lovely.- It's gorgeous. - Do you like cheese?
0:06:40 > 0:06:44- The raffle continues.- A two-week, five-star holiday to New York.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Actually, everyone else in this room is in on the scam.
0:06:47 > 0:06:48Ticket number four.
0:06:51 > 0:06:56The mark has intentionally been given the worst prize to make her feel cheesed off!
0:06:56 > 0:07:01That way, she'll really appreciate the offer Alex is about to make her.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03- Thank you so much.- Our pleasure. - Thank you.
0:07:03 > 0:07:09Thank you. Now, is there a Clare Kennedy here? Who's Clare?
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Clare.
0:07:11 > 0:07:16Hi. I was wondering if we could have a word next door.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18You might be able to help us out here.
0:07:18 > 0:07:23The rest of you, enjoy your afternoon. I'll leave you with these three mad people.
0:07:23 > 0:07:29I'll be sure to come and mingle a bit later on.
0:07:29 > 0:07:30Thank you for your time.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34- Come with me.- You guys must be really high.
0:07:36 > 0:07:42The mark follows him through into another room, where she meets Paul, playing Alex's lawyer.
0:07:44 > 0:07:49Thank you so much for giving up your time. I hope I've reciprocated that with a cheese tour.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52But I bought this property and land about a year ago.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55I've bought this whole thing and I'm developing it.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59I'm pouring money into the infrastructure.
0:07:59 > 0:08:04It happens that you, because of your background, can help me with this.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07So Alex is currently the owner of this house and land.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10But he wants the title of baron which goes with it.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14I'll be down if I don't get everything which comes with it
0:08:14 > 0:08:16which is the title as well.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19So this means a lot to me.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22In order to claim his title of baron, Alex needs the mark's help.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25His lawyer Paul explains.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29He requires signatories, people who have titles,
0:08:29 > 0:08:31to agree to his application to a title.
0:08:31 > 0:08:36Because of that, we just need someone who can sign a form on his behalf
0:08:36 > 0:08:39and approve his application.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43It's like trying to get a membership to a club. It's as simple as that.
0:08:43 > 0:08:49And you have to be seconded sometimes by people who already hold a membership.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52It's really as simple as that.
0:08:52 > 0:08:57What we need someone to do is to essentially take on a title that exists
0:08:57 > 0:08:59on the land near here.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03So the hustlers need the signature of a lord. Or lady.
0:09:03 > 0:09:09And because of her family name, this mark could claim the title of Lady of Tuke, the local area.
0:09:09 > 0:09:13Our consultants told us you have a 90 per cent chance.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15Everyone else is 40%, 50%.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17As long as we can track you back far enough,
0:09:17 > 0:09:21we can use you as a signatory. We need someone who can claim that title,
0:09:21 > 0:09:24sign a piece of paper and claim a consultant fee.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26That's all we ask you to do.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29He'll pay you £10,000.
0:09:29 > 0:09:30I will.
0:09:30 > 0:09:35She just needs to become a lady, sign Alex's baron application
0:09:35 > 0:09:38and earn a whopping £10,000 as a fee.
0:09:38 > 0:09:45But first, she needs to own a piece of local land. That's where Justin and Colin come in.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48The wonderful Clare. Soon to be called Lady Clare!
0:09:50 > 0:09:53We own about 180, 184 acres.
0:09:53 > 0:09:59We've decided to give away a small portion that doesn't detract from our policies.
0:09:59 > 0:10:05- It's a good situation for all of us. - It's still a valuable piece of land in that it's titled.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08I'm going to basically sell you their land
0:10:08 > 0:10:10so that land belongs to you.
0:10:10 > 0:10:14The minimum fee for the parcel of land is £2,000.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Which you pay to Colin and Justin.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21I will then issue you with the title and a certificate
0:10:21 > 0:10:25and at that moment you will sign something for him
0:10:25 > 0:10:26and he will then pay you.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30She'll have to fork out two grand. But she'll get ten in return.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33And she'll be a proper blue-blooded lady.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35We need people to act quickly.
0:10:35 > 0:10:41So if you're willing to act quickly, there's a cheque for £10,000 with your name on it.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45Shall we give you a bit of time to think about it?
0:10:45 > 0:10:51The mark isn't sure, so Paul, Justin and Colin offer to take her to look at the land.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Use one of our cars outside.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56OK. Let me get the keys from your room.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01It's a ten-minute drive up a winding road.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06And it's not the most attractive plot of land in the area.
0:11:07 > 0:11:12It's really inaccessible. You must understand you're not buying development land.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16It's literally just going to be a piece of you in Scotland.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18But that's it.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21What I have to do is, I have to ask you
0:11:21 > 0:11:26would you be willing to consider it and complete today?
0:11:26 > 0:11:29How do you feel about it?
0:11:29 > 0:11:33She's still not convinced. Sensing that the mark is slipping away from them,
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Paul offers to sweeten the deal.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37What if we paid you cash tonight?
0:11:39 > 0:11:42We have to legally witness a transaction.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47She'll get her reward in cash tonight.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51I want to organise a driver. One of Ian's guys is available.
0:11:51 > 0:11:55The mark goes off to think about the offer.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Paul arranges for her to be taken to a nearby bank
0:11:57 > 0:12:02just in case she decides to withdraw some money.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06- Your ladyship!- Well done!
0:12:22 > 0:12:27When hustlers go out, they don't bring money. They bring prop bets.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32The proposition bet only has one rule,
0:12:32 > 0:12:35and that's that the hustler always wins.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43Polly is out on the town with some new friends
0:12:43 > 0:12:46and she knows hustlers never buy their own drinks.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49I've got a challenge for you.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51It's using these three straws.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55The challenge is you have to pick them up
0:12:55 > 0:12:59just using this one straw.
0:12:59 > 0:13:05You can't do anything to the straw. You can't bend it or change anything about the straw.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09- I can't hook it or anything? - No. You have to keep it straight.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12- Right.- If you can do it, I'll buy you a drink.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15- If you can't do it, you have to buy me a drink.- OK.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17Deal, deal, deal, deal?
0:13:17 > 0:13:18Yeah?
0:13:19 > 0:13:23So there's one straw propping up two joined straws.
0:13:23 > 0:13:27To win a drink, Polly's friends need to lift all three of them
0:13:27 > 0:13:28using a fourth straw.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30It's a tricky one!
0:13:30 > 0:13:34- Good luck!- OK. I'll go for the simple one first.- Yeah.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39Good attempt. Right, that's really good.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42- Try again.- Any ideas? - You could try like sucking.
0:13:45 > 0:13:46You could do!
0:13:46 > 0:13:49- Suck it really hard. - Go on, give it a whirl.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55That was pretty good.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58- So do you give up?- I do.
0:13:58 > 0:14:03- If I can pick these three straws up with one straw, you'll buy me a drink.- I will.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05OK. I'll show you.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11Wheee!
0:14:12 > 0:14:17Polly collapses the straws, causing them all to rest on the one she's holding.
0:14:17 > 0:14:21Then she just lifts and the whole structure is interlocked.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25Now she just needs a drink for all those straws.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27Mine's a Martini! Off you go.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Fantastic!
0:14:35 > 0:14:39A leafy suburb on a quiet week-day morning.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43Could this be Jazz, moonlighting as a courier?
0:14:47 > 0:14:52- Are you expecting a parcel today at all?- No, unless my wife's ordered something.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55I've only got a postcode so I have to knock on all the doors.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57He's trying to deliver a package.
0:14:57 > 0:15:02- Mr Ahmed?- No. - How do you spell McCartney?
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Is that J-E-A-N?
0:15:04 > 0:15:07Unfortunately, he's having trouble reading the address label.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10It's not this place. I'll try the other one.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Does anyone else live in the house?
0:15:12 > 0:15:15It's one of these. Thank you. Have a nice day.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18This is Robbing the Hood.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24A little later in the day, Polly and Jess arrive in a taxi.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28They look like they're just back from an exotic holiday.
0:15:28 > 0:15:29We'll be right back.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33The hustlers jump out of the cab and head to a nearby house.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36I'll ring the doorbell.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Hi, there. Sorry to disturb you.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46We're staying with Kieran. We're just back off holiday. He's not in.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50He's meant to pay for our cab for us. We've only got Thai baht on us.
0:15:50 > 0:15:55He's told us to knock on a neighbour's door to see if we can borrow some money.
0:15:55 > 0:16:00He's back in 20 minutes. We're really stuck and the driver's getting mad!
0:16:00 > 0:16:02He does look like the miserable type!
0:16:04 > 0:16:10Can you help? It's 30 quid for the taxi and Kieran's back in 20 minutes. He'll come straight round.
0:16:10 > 0:16:14So the girls are staying with a friend who was going to pay for their taxi.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16But he isn't in.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20Will this neighbour help them out of this sticky situation?
0:16:20 > 0:16:23- It's Kieran.- Just round the corner. - From 116.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27I don't know if I've got 30 quid on me. I'll see what I've got.
0:16:27 > 0:16:28Thank you.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30- Thank you very much.- Thank you.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34The mark goes inside to see how much cash she has in the house.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37I've only got a fiver. Is that any good to you?
0:16:37 > 0:16:42Five pounds. That won't cover much of a taxi ride.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44- Maybe.- A fiver.
0:16:44 > 0:16:48We'll try that and see if he'll lay off a little bit.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Let's see what he does.
0:16:51 > 0:16:55- The hustlers take what they can get. - Thank you very much.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59- We've got a fiver for you, sir. - Let's go.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03Their next mark is just a quick drive round the corner.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05- Go to the next house. - Next one, Paul!
0:17:05 > 0:17:07It may take longer than we thought!
0:17:07 > 0:17:13This scam only works because the girls were able to give the name of a real neighbour.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16So how exactly did they do that?
0:17:16 > 0:17:21It was thanks to Jazz and his phishing expedition this morning.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23OK. Let me check.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27He just needed the first name of someone living on the street and their house number.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Sorry, mate. I'll try another one.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31Once he'd got the information,
0:17:31 > 0:17:36he walked round the corner and passed the details on to the other hustlers in the cab.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39It's Kieran BLEEP and Jean BLEEP.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41His name's Johnnie BLEEP.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Good luck.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46It took just a few names from each street
0:17:46 > 0:17:49to be able to knock on as many doors in the area as possible.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53Who could possibly say no to these damsels in distress?
0:17:53 > 0:17:56Sorry to bother you.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02He called and said to go round to one of his neighbours.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15We owe him 30!
0:18:18 > 0:18:21This guy goes to check if he's got any cash in the car.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28Could I take the £2 and bring it round later?
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Two quid!
0:18:30 > 0:18:32That'll barely buy the cabbie a cup of tea!
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Thank you, anyway.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37Each hit only takes a couple of minutes.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40In the morning's hustling, the figures soon add up.
0:18:40 > 0:18:45Some of the hustlers' marks are a little more generous.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48Hi, sorry to interrupt your day.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53We're staying at 109 with Karen, round the corner, and Derek.
0:18:53 > 0:18:58We've just come back from Thailand and they were meant to pay for our cab.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01Can we borrow it? Is that all right?
0:19:01 > 0:19:02Thank you!
0:19:05 > 0:19:0830. Sorry. Thank you so much.
0:19:13 > 0:19:19The mark actually hands over £40, even though the hustlers only asked for 30!
0:19:19 > 0:19:22Now, that's more like it!
0:19:22 > 0:19:24It's back to the cab and onwards.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34Don't forget the meter's on!
0:19:36 > 0:19:40They had their holiday hats on. They were staying with Calum next door.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42The taxi's involved, obviously.
0:19:42 > 0:19:47I know they were going away from me, but I just trust everybody.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50I think they asked for 30, and me being me, gave them 40!
0:19:53 > 0:19:59This happened to a friend of ours who knew nothing about it till their neighbour came for their money.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01It really illustrates the power of a name
0:20:01 > 0:20:04and why you should be careful who you give your name to.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07It's simple to protect yourself from this type of scam.
0:20:07 > 0:20:12Never give money to anyone who shows up on your doorstep, no matter what story they give you.
0:20:12 > 0:20:16Just send them on their way and close the door.
0:20:24 > 0:20:29Earlier today, TV presenters Justin and Colin helped persuade a mark
0:20:29 > 0:20:33that her background allows her to claim the title of lady.
0:20:33 > 0:20:38We've decided to give away a small portion that doesn't detract from our policies.
0:20:38 > 0:20:43She would simply need to buy a small plot of land owned by the guest hustlers.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46The parcel of land is £2,000.
0:20:46 > 0:20:52Her title would allow her to sign a legal document for Alex to claim another title.
0:20:52 > 0:20:53Baron of the estate.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57For which he's willing to pay her a £10,000 fee.
0:20:57 > 0:21:02If you can act quickly, there's a cheque for £10,000 with your name on it.
0:21:02 > 0:21:03In...
0:21:08 > 0:21:11The hustlers have provided a car to take the mark and her friend
0:21:11 > 0:21:15to the local town centre. Just in case she needs to go to the bank!
0:21:19 > 0:21:23She returns to the estate. But has she decided to go for the deal?
0:21:23 > 0:21:27And more importantly, does she have the money?
0:21:38 > 0:21:39How are you?
0:21:39 > 0:21:42- Have a seat again.- Have a seat.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45They reassemble in Alex's drawing room.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47The mark still doesn't look too sure.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50- The good news is you have the cash here.- Yes, I do.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54- Sorry to drop that on you. - That's fine. We keep enough cash to go round.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57Time for the big question.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59So are you happy to complete?
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Great. OK. So this is what we're going to do.
0:22:03 > 0:22:08- First, we need to count your money, unfortunately.- I have an envelope somewhere.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11And there's the money.
0:22:11 > 0:22:16The mark hands over £2,000 in cash for a tiny piece of land.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18I'll do this up here.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21Do I take my commission out of this?
0:22:21 > 0:22:25Paul counts out the cash. You can never be too careful.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29It all goes into an envelope.
0:22:31 > 0:22:36Which Alex then hands to Justin. After all, it's his land.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Stick that in your pocket.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Colin signs over the property deeds.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51Job done. Justin and Colin are about to head off
0:22:51 > 0:22:54and leave the mark to finish off her deal with Alex.
0:22:54 > 0:22:58But Justin is worried about carrying around all that money.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01I don't fancy walking into Stirling with all this.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04- I'll put it in the safe.- I'll give you this back, if that's OK.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Alex takes the envelope back.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10If that's OK with you.
0:23:10 > 0:23:14- Are you going to leave that?- I don't fancy carrying that around all day.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Leave it. I'll put it in the safe.
0:23:16 > 0:23:20ALL TALK AT ONCE
0:23:21 > 0:23:24But now for the important business of the day.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27Put your name here. Sign here. Then print again right there.
0:23:27 > 0:23:31This lady has just become the Lady of Tuke.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37- Do you want us to bring a few more bottles back?- Bring a case!
0:23:37 > 0:23:40I'll bring a couple of bottles.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43I'll see these gentlemen off.
0:23:43 > 0:23:47- See you shortly. Take care. - Excellent, Your Ladyship!- Well done.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54You now own this piece of land, which is good.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57You are now the Lady of Tuke.
0:23:57 > 0:24:02Now that she's entitled to sponsor Alex's own bid for a title,
0:24:02 > 0:24:06he keeps up his end of the bargain by paying her the fee.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10£10,000. Only he's a little bit short!
0:24:10 > 0:24:16OK. I've got to get five more from the safe for you. It's not going anywhere.
0:24:16 > 0:24:22Alex goes off to his safe for more money, leaving Paul to countersign the title deed.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Thing is, I don't want to do it with this pen.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27Do you have a nice pen, a fountain pen or anything?
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Let me run to the office and get one.
0:24:29 > 0:24:36Paul goes to get some more appropriate stationery - but he won't be coming back!
0:24:36 > 0:24:38This is the getaway!
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Everyone else is already on their way out
0:24:41 > 0:24:43and into the cars.
0:24:43 > 0:24:48Before the mark realises what's happening, the hustlers have gone.
0:25:00 > 0:25:04But what about the money that's still lying on the seat?
0:25:04 > 0:25:06Here's what the mark didn't see.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10Justin wasn't really worried about carrying around the money.
0:25:10 > 0:25:15The hustlers made a big show of giving him the envelope of cash
0:25:15 > 0:25:19so he could write something on the front of it.
0:25:19 > 0:25:24That was because they'd prepared an identical-looking envelope moments earlier.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27- Write something on this envelope. - Money for land?- Yeah.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34The cash went into Justin's pocket.
0:25:35 > 0:25:41But it was the duplicate envelope that came back out.
0:25:41 > 0:25:45And that's full of worthless newspaper.
0:25:45 > 0:25:51So is the mark's ten grand fee. It's rolls of newspaper wrapped in £20 notes.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55It's all as phoney as that piece of land,
0:25:55 > 0:26:00which she doesn't own, and her title of lady, which was invented by the hustlers.
0:26:03 > 0:26:08Before long, the mark realises something isn't right.
0:26:24 > 0:26:30And then the penny drops when she's told the place was only hired for the day.
0:26:47 > 0:26:52By the time they get outside, the hustlers are nowhere to be seen.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58It's been an interesting little journey
0:26:58 > 0:27:02to see how easy it would be to take advantage of somebody
0:27:02 > 0:27:05and to take somebody's money, to scam them.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08That is precisely what we demonstrated.
0:27:08 > 0:27:12That's the thing. There are people out there who really do hustle.
0:27:15 > 0:27:19There are a number of companies that offer to make you a lord or a lady
0:27:19 > 0:27:21by buying a piece of land.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23In this case, the offer seems too good to be true.
0:27:23 > 0:27:29Not only does the mark receive a title, but are also offered a sum of money for their troubles.
0:27:29 > 0:27:33If you're going to enter into a transaction to acquire a piece of land,
0:27:33 > 0:27:39use a solicitor, use somebody who'll protect you and look after your rights
0:27:39 > 0:27:42and tell you if what you're doing is the right and sensible thing to do.
0:27:42 > 0:27:49Don't part with money to help someone who's probably a complete stranger.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57If you want to know more about how the show is made
