Don’t Buy Those Cards!

Episode 10 of 10

Can the ground team cross London and reach a local supermarket in time to stop a couple buying gift cards for scammers?

A young couple in London are terrified into believing that they are about to be arrested by scammers posing as the National Crime Agency. Using a cast of characters posing as police officers, the scammers create a plausible story of a major investigation – with the couple as the subjects.

The interceptors try everything they can to help, including dispatching the ground team to find the couple and speak to them face to face. The chase goes all the way to the line and into the local supermarket.
