Spare change is the new addition to uncharitable.
A spin-off Reflecting on previous episodes, focusing on the spare details, similar cases and what to look out for with charity scams.
A Cancer con pulls on the heartstrings of many who fail to spot the discrepancies when they choose to ignore the reg flags.
Odeya investigates several cases from the last 12 years to highlight their similarities and questions what we can do if we suspect someone we know may be faking a life-threatening illness.
Cases include Madison Russo, Belle Gibson, Brittany Ozarowski, MiaBaoBao and Megan Bahri.
