Scamming costs the worldwide economy billions each year.

Worse, it hits ordinary people where it hurts the most: whether the life-savings of the vulnerable elderly taken over the phone, young people's hard-earned cash, whipped away by clicking the wrong online link, or a lump sum taken when you are caught momentarily unaware – we are all vulnerable. There is a scam for everyone, and if you haven’t been stung yet, it’s only because until now no one has used the right approach.

Nick Stapleton is the presenter on the BBC’s Scam Interceptors, an award-winning TV series that teaches viewers how to beat scammers, and has become a guru in the ways of fraud, theft and con-artistry. In this book, the first of its kind, he has put together a fail-safe handbook covering all known scams, including advice on how to protect yourself and vulnerable loved ones, what to do if you think you’ve been scammed and how to go about reclaiming stolen money.
