A father and son who get caught up in a police chase find themselves on the wrong side of the law after making bogus claims. During lockdown, when the streets across the country were deserted, two riders have an unlikely collision on a street in Croydon. Caught on camera, five young men claiming for serious injuries after a bus crash are caught out by damning CCTV footage. Double trouble for a cabbie claiming thousands for a replacement car when investigators find his dates just don’t add up. And the claim of a sporty young woman who can no longer enjoy her favourite activities, following a car accident, is flipped on its head by her social media posts.
