Are we too tolerant of fraud?

You and Yours

Available for over a year

We talk about fraud a lot on You and Yours - but usually you're unlikely to know, or be, the criminal behind it. But there's a growing type of fraud where you're the fraudster - and you don't seem to mind. So are we too tolerant of certain types of crime? Also - what could the effect of weight-loss drugs like Mounjaro and Wegovy be on companies trying to sell us stuff - from makeup to alcohol? The difficulties of finding a decent builder - are trader recommendation sites any help? Meanwhile, Spain's prime minister wants to crack down on foreigners buying homes there - and back in the UK, are rents finally going to start coming down? PRESENTER: SHARI VAHL PRODUCER: TOM MOSELEY
