This episode we hear the story of Gilbert Chikli, one of the greatest con artists of all time! For two years from late 2015, an individual or individuals impersonating France's defence minister, Jean-Yves Le Drian, scammed an estimated €80m (£70m; $90m) from wealthy victims including the Aga Khan and the owner of Château Margaux wines. Chikli will go down in the HALL OF FAME of scammers.
