Good Morning Britain Host Martin Lewis: “Action Fraud is Pointless”

This was published less than 2 years ago: (check out the video too)

GMB host Martin Lewis has labelled scams as the 'biggest crime in the country' as the presenter took aim at fraudsters in a stinging outburst. Mr Lewis slammed the scam watchdog Action Fraud as 'pointless and said the organisation lacked the necessary funding to tackle the criminals. He warned fellow presenter Susanna Reid that the UK faces an 'epidemic of scams.'



Summary: I may not be the first person to independently reach such conclusions; the pension crime (fraud) of Sirius 'Open Source' was reported to Action Fraud 28 days ago (it has victims other than myself as well) and there's no response; even efforts to phone them up turned up to be useless so far
