0:00:00 > 0:00:03This is the most successful scam show of all time.
0:00:05 > 0:00:08A hit in 45 countries around the world.
0:00:12 > 0:00:14The Real Hustlers have stolen cars...
0:00:15 > 0:00:17It's perfectly safe there.
0:00:19 > 0:00:21..burgled houses...
0:00:22 > 0:00:24..picked...
0:00:27 > 0:00:28..switched...
0:00:28 > 0:00:30and ditched
0:00:30 > 0:00:31A tenner for the lot.
0:00:31 > 0:00:37They've carried out close to 500 scams and stolen over £1 million.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39Now they're back for an 11th series.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46With new recruits...
0:00:46 > 0:00:50Their job: to expose the tricks of the criminals' trade
0:00:50 > 0:00:53so that YOU don't get scammed.
0:00:55 > 0:01:00On tonight's show there's a new four-legged hustler on the team.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02- Excuse me, is this your bag?- No.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Polly turns pennies into free drinks.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07I want you to end it all the coins in a row.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11And guest hustler Sam Faiers gets Alex all hot and bothered.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15- That's my car!- That is my car! - That's not your car. - I'm taking the car.
0:01:54 > 0:01:59The Hustlers have invited celebrity friends to see if they can cut it as con artists.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02But they'll have no clue as to what the scam is about
0:02:02 > 0:02:04and there are no dress rehearsals.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06So this is sink or swim.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13Today's guest hustler is one of the stars of The Only Way is Essex,
0:02:13 > 0:02:15Sam Faiers.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22You need to be sort of like a strong person. You need to be on the ball
0:02:22 > 0:02:25and like almost like a good actress as well. To be honest,
0:02:25 > 0:02:29my acting skills aren't amazing but I might be good. See what happens!
0:02:29 > 0:02:33Our show is reality. It's our lives.
0:02:33 > 0:02:38We know what to expect, it's our relationship. Whereas this is, at the moment, a secret.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42Time for Sam to find out what's in store for her today.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48- Have you ever heard the term "woman scorned"?- No.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52A woman scorned is a woman who's very, very angry.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56- Am I going to be making somebody feel really bad?- Yeah - me!
0:02:56 > 0:03:01- OK, that's good.- That's all right, is it?- It's all right!- OK!
0:03:01 > 0:03:04First thing to do is get ourselves a big mansion.
0:03:04 > 0:03:09- You and I are going to pretend to be very rich.- Cool.- Ready?- Yeah!
0:03:11 > 0:03:17Sam's going to have to turn on the tantrums in A Woman Scorned.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24The first step in the scam was to find a nice big house to set the scene.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27That was Jazz and Polly's job.
0:03:27 > 0:03:32It needed to be in an upmarket area and had to look proper money.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36- The name's Mr and Mrs Steele. - That's what I'm talking about!
0:03:36 > 0:03:43Jazz then went down to the property and placed a hidden camera pointing at the gate's security key pad.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46And then he waited.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51Later that day, a wealthy couple turn up for a booked house viewing.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54- It's actually Sam and Alex.- Hi. Liz. Nice to meet you. You OK?
0:03:54 > 0:03:57They're posing as potential buyers.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00As far as this estate agent is concerned,
0:04:00 > 0:04:04they just want to have a good look around the property.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08My work's moved me up here. It's a temporary move up here
0:04:08 > 0:04:12which might be permanent, but we'll see.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17I've been to Edinburgh before, a couple of times.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20Sam heads upstairs with the agent, to see the bedrooms.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22- Is this the main bedroom?- Yes.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Her job is actually to keep him busy.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Wow, this has got nice wardrobe space in here.
0:04:28 > 0:04:33Whilst Alex opens the back door and lets in a young man waiting in the bushes.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36Now Jazz needs to hide inside the house.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49With Jazz in position, Alex quickly winds up the tour.
0:04:49 > 0:04:54We've got to shoot because I have to meet the guy from the office.
0:04:54 > 0:04:59The agent is keen to point out all the mod cons of this remarkable property.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01But he's wasting his breath.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10Once Sam and Alex have left, the agent makes sure the place is secure.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12But Jazz is still hiding inside.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17Thanks to the hidden camera by the gate,
0:05:17 > 0:05:19the hustlers now know the entry code.
0:05:19 > 0:05:24That means Alex can let the team back into the grounds.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31Jazz pops out from his hiding place under the stairs,
0:05:31 > 0:05:34unlocks the front door from inside and it's scam on.
0:05:34 > 0:05:39A few hidden cameras and lots of empty packing cases complete the preparations.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Time to hustle!
0:05:46 > 0:05:51A couple of visitors turn up for a household sale of unwanted items.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55This lady's here to buy a high-end plasma TV.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58That makes her the mark.
0:06:01 > 0:06:06Sam is playing the lady of the house, so she answers the door.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08- Hi. Are you here for the telly?- Yes. - Come in.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12The stunning house is now in a right state.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16Boxes, bubble wrap and people all over the place.
0:06:16 > 0:06:21We're packing. It's a bit hectic at the moment. Joe, will you get the telly for us?
0:06:21 > 0:06:24Yeah, give me one sec. I'll just move this box.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28The mark is in no doubt that Sam is in the process of moving out.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31- This is the one you want, isn't it? - Yes.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35Removal man Jazz brings in the top-of-the-range 3D TV she's here to collect.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38It's £500. Half the normal selling price.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42- I'd give it to you for less, but... - Sorry!
0:06:42 > 0:06:47Jay, will you get that boxed up for me? Have you got the controls for it?
0:06:47 > 0:06:51I do have the controls. They're in a separate box.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- I'll go to the van quickly and get it.- It's in a separate box?
0:06:55 > 0:07:01- Yeah. The van's only there.- Sorry, he won't be long. Take a seat. - I'll be a couple of minutes.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04The TV's not much use without the remote.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Jazz thinks he's seen it in a packing box.
0:07:07 > 0:07:11Meanwhile, the mark and her mate take a seat. A good time to take payment.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16Could I get the money for the telly? I'll put this in the safe, OK?
0:07:16 > 0:07:22Lawyer Paul is always happy to look after money, even if the safe is really his pocket!
0:07:22 > 0:07:27Still, that's just peanuts compared to what the hustlers are really after.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Is it everything you're selling?
0:07:29 > 0:07:34We've had loads of stuff. I'm selling everything, like for nothing
0:07:34 > 0:07:36because I'm going back to London.
0:07:36 > 0:07:40I've only been here about a year. My ex and I are just getting rid of it all.
0:07:40 > 0:07:45So that's why she's selling her possessions off cheap.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48There's clearly been a nasty break-up.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51He's pulling boxes out. He'll be a few minutes. Sorry.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55Jess is playing Sam's best mate.
0:07:55 > 0:07:56And she's got bad news.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00A car has just pulled into the driveway.
0:08:00 > 0:08:04- Liz, did you know Ian was coming here? He's here now.- Ian?- Yeah.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08What's he doing here? He's not allowed here. Sorry!
0:08:08 > 0:08:10It's the horrible ex-husband.
0:08:11 > 0:08:12It's my house! BLEEP
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Sorry, girls. This is the ex!
0:08:15 > 0:08:19This could get awkward. It's Alex and he's here to cause a scene.
0:08:19 > 0:08:24- What are you doing here?- It's still technically my house.- You're not allowed here.
0:08:24 > 0:08:29- I just want to pick a few things up. - Everything's gone. It's packed.
0:08:29 > 0:08:35- Listen, there's no need to make a problem.- You're going to upset her again.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39- I'm not upsetting anybody. I want to pick up the TV and go. - The TV's sold.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43- Nice to see you.- The TV's sold, Ian. Everything's being sold.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Hang on a minute. Can I speak to you outside?
0:08:46 > 0:08:48- Sorry.- You OK?- Yeah.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52He's definitely not getting that TV because it now belongs to the mark.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55It's sold. It's mine to sell. It's gone.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59Alex and Sam make sure the mark can hear every word of their ex-lovers' spat.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03Do what the hell you want, but we had a deal.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06I've only just calmed her down.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09The TV is mine to sell, so is the house. Everything is.
0:09:09 > 0:09:13- You're not meant to be here.- Do you know what?- Let me see what I can do.
0:09:13 > 0:09:18- I'm asking you to leave.- Listen! - Put your hands on me again and we'll carry you out!
0:09:18 > 0:09:22- I'm going to take the car. I'm taking the car...- Move!
0:09:22 > 0:09:28- The car's not yours.- The car's mine to sell. That is my car!
0:09:28 > 0:09:31You never drove that car. You drove it once!
0:09:31 > 0:09:36Sounds like Sam's got the right to sell whatever she chooses as part of the divorce,
0:09:36 > 0:09:40including his car, whether Alex likes it or not.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45I'm really sorry about this, girls.
0:09:45 > 0:09:50- That has always been my car. You can have everything else. - It isn't your car.- It is my car!
0:09:50 > 0:09:55And to throw the cat amongst the pigeons, here's the new girlfriend!
0:09:55 > 0:09:59- Polly.- I've got my hair appointment. - What are YOU doing here?
0:09:59 > 0:10:02Oh, the new girlfriend's here now!
0:10:02 > 0:10:05The girls go to watch the fireworks!
0:10:05 > 0:10:09- It's my car to sell. And why are you here?- I'm supporting my boyfriend.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13Get her off here! She's absolutely vile!
0:10:13 > 0:10:16I'm coming back in an hour and I'm picking up that car!
0:10:16 > 0:10:18God, are you OK?
0:10:18 > 0:10:19- Ridiculous.- I know.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23- BLEEP.- Are you OK? Why is he even here?- Why did he bring her here?
0:10:23 > 0:10:27I'm so sorry. I'm really embarrassed about that.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29- God!- Are you OK?- I'm shaking.
0:10:29 > 0:10:34- Why was she here?- She just got out of the car. I'm sorry about this.
0:10:37 > 0:10:42The mark's heard enough squabbling. She wants her remote so she can get out of here.
0:10:42 > 0:10:47- I need to sell that car.- Was he after the car?- I'll make sure he doesn't come again.
0:10:47 > 0:10:53- You need to get rid of that car. - Do you want me to get somebody? - Do you want a car, £50?
0:10:53 > 0:10:55Can I sell the car for 50 quid?
0:10:55 > 0:11:00Can I seriously sell that car for next to nothing so he gets nothing for it?
0:11:00 > 0:11:05You can't sell it for £50. You have to sell it for at least 80% of its value.
0:11:05 > 0:11:10- At least five grand.- You can buy it! - I can't.- It's the only thing that'll keep me in contact with him.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12So I want to sell it for nothing.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16Then that'll really get him for coming here. He's screwed.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19Why don't you go have a glass of juice?
0:11:19 > 0:11:22I'm amazed he brought that new girl along.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25Jess leads Sam away to calm her down,
0:11:25 > 0:11:27leaving behind lawyer Paul.
0:11:27 > 0:11:31This is a particularly nasty break-up.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Do you want to buy a car?
0:11:33 > 0:11:37She just wants her remote control, not an expensive car.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39Although...
0:11:39 > 0:11:44- It is an Aston Martin. - What's the engine size on that?
0:11:44 > 0:11:52Well, it's a DB9, so something like 480 horsepower. She'll sell it to you for the mere minimum.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54She's sold the house for peanuts.
0:11:54 > 0:11:59She won't give him a penny. Would you be interested in the car?
0:11:59 > 0:12:04I ask you seriously, because if you are, I can wrap it up for her today.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06She's actually thinking about it.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10Obviously you'd want to be paid today? £3,000 I can come up with.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Could you do five?
0:12:18 > 0:12:19- Do you want a look at the car?- Yes.
0:12:19 > 0:12:24No harm in taking a look at the car. Though she hasn't forgotten about the TV.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30I'll sort him out, don't worry!
0:12:30 > 0:12:36The mark can't believe she's being offered a 60-grand car for a fraction of its market value.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Come and have a quick look, girls.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41Paul leads her out to look at the motor.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45Good luck to you. It breaks my heart I can't buy it myself, to be honest.
0:12:45 > 0:12:53Here's what I'd do for you. I'd make sure all the paperwork and everything is completely done.
0:12:53 > 0:12:58Have a seat. I'll let you guys take it for a test drive in a bit.
0:12:58 > 0:13:03It doesn't look like the mark needs much more convincing.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05But Paul turns up the heat.
0:13:05 > 0:13:10This is a very high-end sports car. This is James Bond's car.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14If you sell it, you'll get 60 grand.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18It finally dawns on the mark that Paul is being serious.
0:13:18 > 0:13:22For five grand, she can't afford not to buy it.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30It breaks my heart I can't buy it myself.
0:13:30 > 0:13:36I'll get him to sort out your remote control, pack it up for you. Come back in 20 minutes
0:13:36 > 0:13:38and I'll have the paperwork ready.
0:13:38 > 0:13:43Paul arranges for the mark to come back later with the cash to pick up the car.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45And her TV, of course!
0:13:45 > 0:13:49But if someone offers you a brand-new Aston Martin for five grand,
0:13:49 > 0:13:54you should really stop and think.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12When hustlers go out, they don't take money.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14They take prop bets.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18The proposition bet has only one rule,
0:14:18 > 0:14:21and that's that the hustler always wins.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29- I've got another challenge. Up for it?- Yes.
0:14:29 > 0:14:34If you lose, you buy everyone a drink. If you win, I buy you a drink.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37I have four coins here.
0:14:37 > 0:14:42This is the starting position and I want you to end it with all the coins in a row.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44- Right.- OK? It's not that simple.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48You can only move one coin at a time.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51And it has to end touching two.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55Move them as often as you want, but it has to touch two each time you move it.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59So to win the bet, Holly's new pals have to go from this...
0:14:59 > 0:15:01to this.
0:15:01 > 0:15:06But they can only move one coin at a time and it has to end up touching two other coins.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09Try and get them in a straight line.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11- I can only move one?- One at a time.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15Yep.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21That's good. You just played it in a reverse position!
0:15:21 > 0:15:24- Fair enough.- Do you want a go?
0:15:26 > 0:15:29- Just one at a time? - One at a time, yes.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32I think I'm just repeating what he did!
0:15:32 > 0:15:36- Shall I show you? If I do, you'll all buy me a drink?- Yes.- OK.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46Whee!
0:15:48 > 0:15:51Holly never said the coins couldn't be separated.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54One, two, three, four moves
0:15:54 > 0:15:57equal one free drink!
0:15:59 > 0:16:02- I will have a whisky and Coke, please.- Oh, OK, then!- Thank you!
0:16:10 > 0:16:13One mark, four bags.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18Five minutes later, one mark, no bags!
0:16:21 > 0:16:24An indoor shopping plaza.
0:16:24 > 0:16:30Looks like hustler Polly is on the hunt for a mark in The Sniff.
0:16:30 > 0:16:35This guy's got a lot of bags with him, making him a perfect potential mark.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Polly's looking a little strained.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Like she's bursting to be somewhere else!
0:16:46 > 0:16:53- Excuse me. Could you do me a favour? I want to pop to the bathroom. Can you look after my bags?- OK.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55Thank you. I won't be long.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58The mark's already looking after several bags.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01What difference will a couple more make?
0:17:01 > 0:17:06The one garish bag stands out from the rest of the luggage.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10But it's nothing compared to the eye-watering fluorescent jackets
0:17:10 > 0:17:12at the other side of the plaza.
0:17:12 > 0:17:17It's Alex and Paul. They've brought along a special little friend.
0:17:18 > 0:17:22The mark clocks the unusual security officers trolling the plaza.
0:17:22 > 0:17:26Seems like they're checking for suspicious packages.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29They're slowly closing in on this unfortunate chap.
0:17:29 > 0:17:33Good girl. Good girl!
0:17:40 > 0:17:45Paul's sniffer dog seems to have picked up a scent from one of Polly's bags.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47Search. Search.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52- Excuse me, is this your bag?- No.
0:17:52 > 0:17:56- These are not your bags?- These two aren't. There's a lady just gone to the toilet.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59She asked me to watch them for a second.
0:18:00 > 0:18:01She was a stranger.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04The mark tries to explain the bag wasn't his
0:18:04 > 0:18:06as Alex checks it with his metal detector.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09- I'd check it out if I were you. - Do you mind?
0:18:09 > 0:18:14- Which of these are yours? - That and that.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18- These are all yours?- We need to quickly run a swab test on these,
0:18:18 > 0:18:22if that's all right. Because she's picked up a scent on one bag,
0:18:22 > 0:18:26- we'll have to swipe all of them, if that's OK.- Yes.- A quick swab.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Can you come with me?
0:18:28 > 0:18:33- Oh, God, that's heavy. Just takes a couple of minutes.- Sure.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37It'll take two seconds. If you'll accompany me, that's fine.
0:18:37 > 0:18:42- Are you with the person whose bag this is?- No. She was a stranger, sitting over there.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46- What did she look like? - Pretty, dark hair, tanned skin.
0:18:47 > 0:18:52- OK. Do you want to wait here in case she comes back?- I'll keep an eye out.
0:18:52 > 0:18:59If she picks up a scent, we've got to swab all the bags. Mostly it's...
0:19:02 > 0:19:05The thing is, I've got to take your word for it, don't I?
0:19:07 > 0:19:10I've got to do my job.
0:19:11 > 0:19:16He's got no choice but to follow the security guards to a van outside.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28Just about to do the swab now.
0:19:28 > 0:19:35Could you ask the gentleman to come back in? There's a girl here. I want to know if it's her bag.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38OK, I'll send the gentleman back. OK.
0:19:38 > 0:19:43I'll swipe these. I think the girl's shown up. He wants you to identify her.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47Just leave these with me. I'll bring them back in.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Sounds like Paul's found the owner of the bags.
0:19:49 > 0:19:55So the mark heads back in to identify her, leaving Alex to continue his checks.
0:19:55 > 0:20:00- Is this the lady over here? - Um... I can't remember.
0:20:00 > 0:20:01Is that your... No?
0:20:03 > 0:20:05- 'They all seem fine.'- Sorry.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07Are you bringing them back in?
0:20:08 > 0:20:13'All negative. Tell the gentleman to wait for me there. I'll bring them back in.'
0:20:13 > 0:20:14He'll bring them back in.
0:20:14 > 0:20:20The bags have got the all-clear. The mark stays put whilst Paul goes off to get them for him.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22He's done enough heavy lifting for one day.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33The mark decides to lend a hand after all and also heads outside.
0:20:35 > 0:20:40But by the time he reaches the door, it's much, much too late.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45BLEEP
0:20:46 > 0:20:48So how did they do it?
0:20:49 > 0:20:51I won't be long. Cheers. Thank you.
0:20:51 > 0:20:56Holly picked a particularly garish bag so the boys could spot it from a distance.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Oo-oo! Done it!
0:20:58 > 0:21:03Once she'd asked the mark to look after it, she hid in the van whilst the dog squad went to work.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Paul led his canine friend over to the mark.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10Right on cue, it started sniffing at Polly's bag.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14That's because it was smeared with dog food before the scam.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18The dog and the outfits had the mark totally convinced
0:21:18 > 0:21:21he was dealing with bona fide security officers.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25Once Alex had the mark and the bags at the van,
0:21:25 > 0:21:29the radio call from Paul was just an excuse to get him back inside
0:21:29 > 0:21:31and away from the bags.
0:21:31 > 0:21:35'All negative. Tell the gentleman to wait and I'll bring them back in.'
0:21:35 > 0:21:38Then, once Paul had made his excuses,
0:21:38 > 0:21:42the hustlers, the dog and the bags were out of there.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53We're all used to a heightened level of security these days.
0:21:53 > 0:21:58If someone in a uniform asks us to do something, most of the time we comply.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00Unfortunately, around the world,
0:22:00 > 0:22:04hustlers abuse this to help them lie, cheat and steal.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09Always check the credentials of anybody claiming to be in authority.
0:22:09 > 0:22:14Whatever you do, never allow yourself to be separated from your bags.
0:22:14 > 0:22:18Let them out of your sight for one minute and you may never see them again.
0:22:28 > 0:22:32Earlier, Essex girl Sam Faiers helped the hustlers convince this mark
0:22:32 > 0:22:35she had walked into a full-scale domestic.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Take Ian away.
0:22:37 > 0:22:42She only came to buy a TV, but has now been offered a 60-grand luxury car
0:22:42 > 0:22:45for a fraction of the price. It's too good to be true
0:22:45 > 0:22:49in A Woman Scorned, Part 2.
0:22:54 > 0:22:58Later that day, the mark returns to the house to pay for her shiny new car.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Hi! Sorry, come in.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07I'm really sorry about earlier. I feel really embarrassed. Come through.
0:23:07 > 0:23:13Sam leads the mark into the kitchen, where Paul has laid out all the paperwork.
0:23:13 > 0:23:17Everything's good. How are you? Did you go to the coffee place?
0:23:17 > 0:23:19No, we just went for a walk.
0:23:19 > 0:23:24OK. Just a couple of details. This registration will come off the car.
0:23:24 > 0:23:28- All the other paperwork is... - It's in the car.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30- The log book's in the car? - It's all in there.
0:23:30 > 0:23:35- Great.- There won't be any problems. - OK?
0:23:35 > 0:23:36So, who's got the money?
0:23:36 > 0:23:41Paul is suggesting they pay for the car first, then go for a test drive.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44But it's all moving a bit too fast for the mark.
0:23:44 > 0:23:48I'd rather do the paperwork first, then give you the money.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51You know how I feel? I want to do this quickly.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55Yes, but I want you to run the car and re-fill that in if you change your mind.
0:23:55 > 0:23:59- I won't change my mind, regardless of...- Let's do it that way anyway.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01Do the money and we'll take this with us.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03I am a lawyer, it is my, unfortunately...
0:24:03 > 0:24:09I'm not, honestly, I'd just rather sign the paper first before I get in the car.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11Tell you what, wait right here.
0:24:11 > 0:24:18- I don't know anything about cars, so don't ask me!- I've bought plenty.
0:24:18 > 0:24:26Despite Paul's best efforts, the mark is not handing over £5,000 without a signature on the document.
0:24:26 > 0:24:30- Registered keeper.- Where do I sign? - Sign it right here.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36Sign here and I'll let you take that with you so you're covered.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Done.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44- This must be so exciting for you! - Yeah.
0:24:44 > 0:24:49Paul countersigns the document to complete the deal and the car is now officially hers.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52And there's five grand.
0:24:52 > 0:24:57- Do you want me to...- Put that in the safe and then close the door. I'll be right up.
0:24:57 > 0:25:03Formalities complete, Paul leads the mark outside to test-drive her brand-new car.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Is your car parked in the drive?
0:25:10 > 0:25:13And best not forget that plasma TV she's already paid for!
0:25:13 > 0:25:16- Grab that other box, if you don't mind.- Yep.
0:25:18 > 0:25:22Open it up, sit inside. I'll go get the cover note for the insurance.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26Paul remembers the insurance document. They can't drive without it.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34Something's not right with the keys.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36The car's not opening.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40But here comes someone new that the mark hasn't seen before.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43And he's also here for a car.
0:25:50 > 0:25:54In fact, he's here for the same car.
0:25:54 > 0:25:58She heads back to the house, but nobody's answering.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10The man's been sent by his boss from a luxury car hire company
0:26:10 > 0:26:12to pick up their one-day rental.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14DOORBELL
0:26:14 > 0:26:16DOORBELL ECHOES
0:26:22 > 0:26:25The lights aren't on and there's nobody home.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28That's because the hustlers are long gone
0:26:28 > 0:26:29by the back exit.
0:26:37 > 0:26:44The car is also gone. The mark is left holding a £5,000 set of useless car keys.
0:26:44 > 0:26:48Still, at least she's got that bargain of a plasma TV.
0:26:49 > 0:26:50Oh, my God, it's rigged!
0:26:50 > 0:26:53He sold us this TV for £500 and it's not a TV!
0:26:53 > 0:26:56And I've paid £5,000 for an Aston Martin car
0:26:56 > 0:27:00which isn't an Aston Martin. It was a hired shot.
0:27:00 > 0:27:04Don't get fooled that it's cheap, "Oh, I'll get it." You'll lose what you've got.
0:27:04 > 0:27:08Oh, my God, I can't believe that I've conned somebody!
0:27:08 > 0:27:12Today there was parts of me where I felt really bad for them.
0:27:12 > 0:27:18To actually do it and rob these people blind, all ages as well, I think it's terrible.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24We staged quite a scheme for the mark in this scam
0:27:24 > 0:27:26and the gradual ramping up of pressure
0:27:26 > 0:27:31is all designed to make her jump at the amazing opportunity about to be made.
0:27:31 > 0:27:38Stop and think. Did you expect to be buying a luxury car for £5,000
0:27:38 > 0:27:40when you woke up this morning? Probably not.
0:27:40 > 0:27:45This is a classic case of something being too good to be true.
