麻豆约拍

Factual entertainment series in which a team of hustlers try out notorious scams on members of the public. Includes hidden-camera footage and comment from fraud-protection experts, police and victims. Scams include: using distraction techniques to access car boots; how a phone shop on a busy high street can con you out of your money; and a restaurant scam that guarantees a very cheap meal.

The participants featured in The Real Hustle have either been set up by their family and friends or believe that they are participating in another television programme. After they have been hustled for real any monies or property taken during the hustle are returned to them and their consent for the item to be broadcast is obtained so that viewers can avoid being ripped off by the same scam.
