The £900 iPhone Scam

Anna Scott thinks she’s talking to Amazon, who are warning her that hackers have bought a £900 iPhone on her account. Can the Interceptors make her realise the truth?

Student Anna Scott has taken a call from what she thinks is retail giant Amazon’s fraud team, warning her that hackers have bought a £900 iPhone on her account. It’s a lie, of course, but Anna won’t know that unless Rav, Nick and the Interceptors can find a way to get through to her.

Meanwhile, the team are on the road with the Metropolitan Police as they set about smashing down the doors of a group of number-spoofing scammers.
