Puppy Scam, US Travel, Male Botox

You and Yours

Available for over a year

Criminals are cloning the Facebook accounts of people in the dog world and scamming those in search of a pet out of money. In this episode of You and Yours we hear from people who found fake Fakebook profiles of themselves online but have found there's little they can do about getting them removed. We'll have advice from the Dogs Trust about how to spot a scam when it comes to ads for pets online. Also on the programme, are more strictly enforced boarder controls putting people off from travelling to the US? As some airlines report a downturn in bookings we hear from two people who've changed their travel plans to the US and we'll get some advice for anyone due to go or planning a trip. And male botox is on the up, We hear from one man who's been having it for ten years and hear from a leading clinic in Liverpool about the changes they have seen when it comes to male cosmetics.
