You and Yours

Charlotte is working out in the gym. But when she gets back to her locker eveything is gone - including her clothes. As thousands start disappearing from her bank account, we find out just how vulnerable your bank card can be. For decades Radio 4's Shari Vahl has been nailing fraudsters, and getting victims’ money back. Now she's opening her casebook… to help you protect yourself. She's joined by ex-fraudster and poacher-turned-gamekeeper Alex Wood and linguistics expert Elisabeth Carter who help Shari decode the criminals' tactics in a bid to keep you safe. Presented By Shari Vahl Produced by Kev Core
