the real hustle... a lesson for who exactly...?
8 Answers
I love this show, but, i can't help thinking that rather than teaching people how to avoid being scammed, it is more likely to be teaching the criminal new tricks...
for every 10 people who are saved from being conned, probably a hundred are conned by a criminal who has learnt how because of this show.
not only do they show you the con, they explain and demonstrate how its done!
this show is on bbc3 and is probably not watched by most people, even if it was on primetime bbc1 it would still not be seen by many people.
i am not suggesting it is banned, i just wondered if any one else thought the same thing?
cheers

I don't think it's fixed - don't think the people getting conned know what's going on, and I would imagine they probably film alot of other people who don't fall for it, or spot cameras etc, but obviously they wouldn't show those.
