Claimed and Shamed (2012)

Season 14: Episode 11

A cabbie trying to make a quick buck on a £100,000 crash-for-cash scam puts his livelihood on the line. A telly, a toy and an angry child – but cracks soon appear in a father’s feeble attempt to get money for a new TV. The chips are down for a woman involved in a freak accident while queuing in a takeaway when investigators discover this isn’t a first for her. A motorist demanding £30,000 in compensation after a collision with a bus is caught out on camera, and a criminal pockets £50,000 selling dodgy insurance – and even ropes his own mum into the racket.
