They discovered that the men had a string of young women who flew abroad, bought case loads of cigarettes, and sneaked them in. Police watched them for weeks, before catching the women and invading the shop. They found a massive quantity of cigarettes. The whole thing was run by a group of asylum seekers and all were arrested. 5 have since been deported.

Because it's their jobs to find drugs and contraband. Pretty simple. They never make a bust they will be let go trust me. So many people come through airports everyday that don't get caught.
Unfortunate!

it kinda makes sense to me. she said she's a stay at home mum and there were no kids with them. of course they could be at their grand parents but still what you say makes sense.
It annoys me to see these officers asking people why they are carrying a few thousand pounds. The UK gov website states you can bring in up to 9,000 pounds WITHOUT having to declare it. Its none of their business!!!
I went to the US I had my laptop in a bag and my carry on suitcase. In the airport in Texas a guy with his beagle dog seemed very interested in me😅 they walked past me a few times but eventually just walked away. When I got to my friends house I looked under my laptop and surprise surprise I found a piece of hash stuck to it 😮 not a lot maybe 2-4 grams but I am sure it would have been enough to deny me acces to the US had he found it
"The man gets a lucky escape" Why? He was only carrying three thousand pounds - all perfectly within his legal rights. It's shocking how biased the narration is towards assuming people are doing something wrong, even when there is no evidence.
@@evelyndunham5135I'm so happy I don't live in a country where I have to fear being audited at the airport because a glorified security guard thinks I'm carrying too much money even if it's below the legal limit.

I definitely took a vacation when I lost my job. It was the first time I'd ever had time to myself, what else was I going to do while I waited for a new job?

It's easier to travel in the US when you are on unemployment. You get a decent check, food stamps, rental assistance. Since you don't have to be at a job, might as well get out and see the world before you go back to the grind.
A year though where you don’t work and the other person is a stay at home mum, also doesn’t work. Nah, no way in hell they could afford that holiday. Look at the state of them
That’s what I thought too, none of their business how I could Vaca even without a job. Why can they ask me how much money I have let alone what is make a month.
the government will come down on a random couple for having gone on a holiday they shouldn't have but the Sheikh travelling First Executive class is already snorting coke and putting his hands up the stewardesses skirts while he waits for his flight to leave
I get nervous just walking past them as they stand guard at the nothing to declare. I'm trying to put my best natural face on.. and clearly fail at doing so and get tugged frequently.
@@onlineamiga back in the 80s i lived in a socialist country, everything was scarce so on those rare times we went to the UK we would stock up on Cadbury's chocolate of all things. Dad would put a few bars of the cheapest ones on top of the clothes in the luggage, with the rest hidden below. Obviously the customs guy would stop us and he would glance at my father when opening the luggage and quickly pocket the exposed chocolate and then let us through customs without a single word.
"He knew they had cigarettes in the bags becasue he steeped back and was like 'whoa this has nothing to do with me.'." - Really? You do not think it could be that 4-5 border enforcement agents were running at the group so that was why he knew there was an issue and not necessarily he knew there were cigarettes in the bags? What dubber logic that guy has. Granted he may have known but the fact he wanted to distance himself from people who are getting busted for something does not make him an accomplice and it certainly does not point to him knowing exactly what was in the bag or even that he knew ahead that there was something wrong.
@SomethingReallyStrange - 100% agree that is the same thing I thought of as well (about what if I were picking up a friend or family member and had no idea). Also the only reason they got to the car was the security let them... so kinda seemed even more like they baited them to get the car too (but yeah maybe they had a good reason for it... but it just didn't seem so as they seemed similar to all of the other cigarette smugglers).
Game Loot I totally agree. I watched another one of these programmes were a British couple were stopped with 36 thousand cigarettes. The officers were really polite and joking with them. Let them go without a warning. These people here were treated badly.
Honestly, I am always nervous at the airport. The way the TSA talks to people is nerve wracking. Being anxious should not be looked at as a sign of guilt.
ive been unwell at the airport and with the shakes, only because I got a flu bug before I left and was on the way to recovery, I was nervous as I thought they would pull me up, not something you need when all you want to do is go home. I wasnt pulled up, perhaps I am just too honest. I have to say most of the border control and customs are pretty good. Only once did I come up to a nasty customs female, there is always one that makes sure everyone has a bad day.
I have HORRIBLE anxiety when I’m in crowded/busy places, in public in general, traveling, etc so watching these makes me terrified to travel outside the country.
I think they weren't fussing because of the amount of money. Its because they think he wasn't paying taxes on his earnings. If he gets the cash out of the country then the Government cannot get their tax revenue on it. Its the same logic as stopping the people bringing in cigarettes (they aren't paying tax on them) but in reverse.
Having the money isn’t an issue. Not declaring it is (if the total exceeds a certain amount), because the suspicion is that large sums of cash that a person has purposefully hidden might be linked to crime.
@@tallgrasslanestitches6635 Thats wrong. He didnt need to declare the amount he had as it was low. But the cash set off the dog and whilst they were investigating they think he wasnt paying taxes. The amount was fine and didnt need to be declared.
Basically, you are not allowed to be have no money and you are not allowed to have too much money. £3000 pounds is not that much. Having said that millions of people around the world under declare their income!
They should not be able to question people who speak a different language without translator cuz they're basically incriminating themselves and making themselves seem more suspicious cuz they don't understand
In one other episode, they ask foreigners if they comprehend English or if they required an interpreter and there's a UK translator hotline for police/govt agencies for just such an occasion.
Why? It doesn't take agents long to figure out if you're legit or not by the questions they answer. Questions that are close to your heart. If you don't like it, don't travel.
if im on vacation especially abroad im going to have a few thousand in cash on me in separate places for safety, my atm card or check may not work everywhere
@@Soda413 but why does he have to pay tax on it? I dont understand, it could be his savings or a loan he got from someone, its not like it was £50,000, its only £3000 he had
One tine I came back through Heathrow airport and I had brought more wine back than I was allowed "only a couple more bottles" so being an honest guy I went through the "I have something to declare channel" I waited about 20 mins before I was spotted and the guy seemed shocked that I was there. It seems that every one of the staff was in the "nothing to declare channel" Anyway the guy didn't check anything and let me out with my extra wine! (sometimes it pays to be a little more truthful)
They were so gutted that unemployed couple didn’t have anything on them. So basically if you’re unemployed don’t take a holiday and come back to the Uk as you’ll have a body and bag search. They were treated so badly.
They waited so they could find out if there were more people involved. It could have been a large group of smugglers and not just a couple of uninformed people.
@@olivertaylor4779 public transport system is up to shit and the traffic in the cities is a freakin nightmare. i used to be a heavy vehicle operator in sydney and i gave up my career for obvious reasons. the major airports for heavies are far and few between.

" Laws say you must admit you carry anything OVER 10k" but security will question everyone with over 1K .. Yet i watched them question people who travel with NO CASH. Where does the harassment end?? seriously.
If you come on a holiday visa with no cash how are they supposed to live and if they have an accident or need medical care who will pay for it? People who do that are really looking to work.
But what's wrong with some poor guy that doesn't want to give money to banks for withrawals and change!?! Are these people serious?

Besides I thought the cop interrogating the chinese man was speaking chinese....then I realized he was probably scottish...
I thought he was speaking Chinese too! It took me a while to realize he was speaking some form of unintelligible English. I'm surprised the Chinese guy seemed to understand him. Why is it ignorant to comment on English spoken so poorly it can't be understood by English speakers.

I'm taking a trip to the Caribbean, and thanks to this show, I am going to be supercareful to make sure nothing has been put into my luggage behind my back.
I have experienced LHR Customs as very efficient, but perhaps too curious. They X-rayed my cabin bag and asked me to open it. "There is something in your bag we don't understand." I answered, "it's a Bavarian beer mug with a metal lid, it's a present for my hosts" and showed them the mug. "Just a moment, what's that cloth inside the mug?" - Look, it's a T-shirt!" - "Have a nice flight!" After this control I was very sure that they also would have detected a bomb.
19:10 "Surprisingly nothing is found on the male passenger despite their erratic behaviour and very unusual story." I mean these guys are really out to get them and they make no apologies for harassing and wasting their time. Apparently, like how one viewer pointed out, these officers have never heard of being able to afford trips by SAVING MONEY.
macforme that’s exactly the question I asked when news came out that an unemployed family guy managed to fund ISIS and lived off welfare and unemployment benefits. Because of that, I’m not surprised that one living in UK/US is able to fund a lavish holiday simply by saving up from government funding.
@@williamhuan Kind of discouraging for people who can't take a holiday since they are working to stay off the public dole. Happy Holidays to you William.
All I can think of when I see these is "man, it would sure be fun to stitch a load of baking soda into an empty and padlocked suitcase, put that suitcase inside another empty and padlocked suitcase with 1000 cigarettes-worth of cigarette boxes (all empty but sealed), put THAT suitcase inside another suitcase, also padlocked and stuffed with a huge amount of out-of-circulation currency such as French Francs or similar". customs officers would have disappointment after disappointment after disappointment.
Lol leave the harassment part aside. I’m sure this is a staged drama.. by the makers of the show. How can someone be so silly to pack a suitcase full of cigs..in this modern age if scanners and sniffer dogs.
'He's starting to get a bit angtsy about it' - maybe it's just me, but I would even with nothing on me. I came from Colombia once, and had the TSA (in the US) search through my bags, looking at me all suspiciously, and I felt nervous as hell. They were super intimidating. Even though I had nothing at all. Although, the UK officers might be more chill.
Don’t feel bad. My stuff is always being searched and I’ve been tested for bomb residue many times due the the medications I carry and I take up to 2 liters of fluids on my carry on and several more liters in checked baggage ( I’m on home IV hydration so when I fly they go with). I get patted down and checked for bomb residue. I guess I’m just used to it by now.
I went thru TSA a couple years after 9/11, I hardly ever fly before or since. So, here I am, Mr. Naive country boy and I am in line. I see ppl taking off shoes, I think, "I forgot about that", then, "damn shoulda wore flip flops". We get closer and the lady at the x ray machine is super pissy ... Then I notice her throwing out fluids, and the agents are like on edge about it AND OF COURSE I have these full shampoo bootles. So to be proactive, I just go over to the trash cans they have scattered around and throw out ALL my fluids. Little, Big, whatever. THAT makes the TSA gal in the lobby even more aggravated "Why are you throwing all that out??" Almost aggressive on me, so I just bark back," I have no idea of the carry on rules, I never fly, but I am tired of being in line, Walmart sells everything I need when I land, so..... it all goes in the trash. " That really ticks her and her TSA buddies off. They come over in a group, before they speak, I say, "guys listen, the managers here put 5 trash cans in this lobby so people can throw their own stuff out and the line moves faster" "I just threw mine out, you want that I should take it out of the trash?" They didnt like that either. Now that I'm older and wiser, I just UPS my stuff to the hotel and carry a very small overnight bag. And I wear Jesus sandals.
Good point, Katie. I have only flown once, from Illinois to California. I was very nervous, and did not want to fly. I was not impressed with anything, until i arrived back in Chicago. That skyline was magnificent.
It sickens me to hear these custom agents voice disappointment when they come across people who are not drug smugglers and in fact are telling the truth about their travels.
@@yadusolparterre all of them, BUT.... dont have to be a prick about it! If you cant act professional, then just practice saying.. "Would you like fries with that" ?
Couple: Pays for expensive Holiday Airport Customs: Some REAL shady business going on here... Yes, I know they were unemployed but if they were previously employed it's not a crazy notion that they saved up money (well, its apparently a crazy notion to customs)
It's not crazy that people can save money, though when people are unemployed, it is rather odd that people just go on a vacation instead of trying to find another job or some line of work and spending money that they may need for bills. It can be suspicious.
They especially the guy don't look like they can afford to go to another state let alone fly to Jamaica for a all inclusive trip. Probably credit card scammers.
These aren't police, they're Border Security, they don't operate in the goldfish-bowl with one hand tied behind their back that our police have to work under. They have to follow orders.
They are Customs Officers. The Romanians ETC go to live in another country (for a better life apparently) and swindle the Government. Britain is becoming a cesspit.
Yes and although they show the ones they actually catch here and where their assertion that the people are purposely trying to mislead them, turn out to be true, it is not that far fetched for someone who is not perfect in English to misunderstand a question and answer something else than was actually asked. It just seems like they put a lot of weight on that.
That asian bloke with two companies and an accountant. These officers don't have a clue. Loads of directors get paid their personal allowance as a salary and take any profits out as dividends at the end of the year or leave it in their business account to re-invest in to their business. If I have a business and have money sitting in my account, I can technically withdraw it and use it for whatever I want and put it back in before my accountant does my taxes. These officers are really out to get innocent people for no reason. And he referred him to the tax man for an investigation for no reason ffs.

@@KC-ve8qz You said as a Lyft driver you would be LIVID. They said "Once outside, the women are joined by a mail accomplice", he claimed to be "rented" but then gave no proof of that claim. Then in the last 10 seconds of the video the narrator said the car has yet to be claimed. Showing documentation that he was just a car service and his job was really just to pick people up/drop them off, he could have proved he was innocent very easily.
"and how much do you make a month?" Guy doesn't know exactly and customs is like SUSPICIOUS!!! And I'm like, idk how much I make a month either mate. I'd have to do some hardcore math right then and there and would probably be 100% wrong because I can't do math.
But he did say exactly 2000 first, then 2500 and then he said 200 a week which doesn't even round up to 1000 a month. He realized his income declaration was much lower than 2000 a month and that'd he outed himself, changing his story to 200 a week instead. And that was even without the extra rent income. That said, if somebody asked you how much money you made in a month, here's a protip: How much did you declare in tax last year divided by 12. If that's too much to think about, divide by 10 and say roughly. At least you wont be off by twice the amount like this dope.
@Jody Owen so like I am American, but the hours I work per week vary wildly and I get weekly paychecks. Sometimes more than $200 sometimes less than $100.

Obviously the customs guy would stop us and he would glance at my father when opening the luggage and quickly pocket the exposed chocolate and then let us through customs without a single word.

"He knew they had cigarettes in the bags becasue he steeped back and was like 'whoa this has nothing to do with me.'." - Really? You do not think it could be that 4-5 border enforcement agents were running at the group so that was why he knew there was an issue and not necessarily he knew there were cigarettes in the bags? What dubber logic that guy has. Granted he may have known but the fact he wanted to distance himself from people who are getting busted for something does not make him an accomplice and it certainly does not point to him knowing exactly what was in the bag or even that he knew ahead that there was something wrong.
@SomethingReallyStrange - 100% agree that is the same thing I thought of as well (about what if I were picking up a friend or family member and had no idea). Also the only reason they got to the car was the security let them... so kinda seemed even more like they baited them to get the car too (but yeah maybe they had a good reason for it... but it just didn't seem so as they seemed similar to all of the other cigarette smugglers).
@SomethingReallyStrange Imagine if it was just an Uber driver
Game Loot I totally agree. I watched another one of these programmes were a British couple were stopped with 36 thousand cigarettes. The officers were really polite and joking with them. Let them go without a warning. These people here were treated badly.

All that fuss for tobacco
Honestly, I am always nervous at the airport. The way the TSA talks to people is nerve wracking. Being anxious should not be looked at as a sign of guilt.
Yeah it is
This right here 😂
ive been unwell at the airport and with the shakes, only because I got a flu bug before I left and was on the way to recovery, I was nervous as I thought they would pull me up, not something you need when all you want to do is go home. I wasnt pulled up, perhaps I am just too honest. I have to say most of the border control and customs are pretty good. Only once did I come up to a nasty customs female, there is always one that makes sure everyone has a bad day.
I have HORRIBLE anxiety when I’m in crowded/busy places, in public in general, traveling, etc so watching these makes me terrified to travel outside the country.
Has nothing to do with guilt. It’s a sign that they should be given further attention.
It seems the “inspectors” have never heard of a saving up money to spend it as you want later.
KonaFocus they’re all shopaholics lol
...Or receiving inheritance money!

They don't get paid enough to have experienced savings.
Maybe if you took an account statement along with you, you would then save evidence of your savings and where the money came from

Wow I can’t believe the Chinese guy at the end was hassled so much for having a couple of thousand pounds with him. Crazy.
Totally nuts. On holiday that is walkaround money. What a fuss.
I think they weren't fussing because of the amount of money. Its because they think he wasn't paying taxes on his earnings. If he gets the cash out of the country then the Government cannot get their tax revenue on it. Its the same logic as stopping the people bringing in cigarettes (they aren't paying tax on them) but in reverse.
Having the money isn’t an issue. Not declaring it is (if the total exceeds a certain amount), because the suspicion is that large sums of cash that a person has purposefully hidden might be linked to crime.
@@tallgrasslanestitches6635 Thats wrong. He didnt need to declare the amount he had as it was low. But the cash set off the dog and whilst they were investigating they think he wasnt paying taxes. The amount was fine and didnt need to be declared.
Basically, you are not allowed to be have no money and you are not allowed to have too much money. £3000 pounds is not that much. Having said that millions of people around the world under declare their income!
They should not be able to question people who speak a different language without translator cuz they're basically incriminating themselves and making themselves seem more suspicious cuz they don't understand
They aren't cautioned so just getting information to see what to do.
I doubt there are translators waiting around for every possible language being spoken at an international airport.
In one other episode, they ask foreigners if they comprehend English or if they required an interpreter and there's a UK translator hotline for police/govt agencies for just such an occasion.

@Evil Jester Stfu.
Oh cmon, so cruel to let them walk out of airport making them think they got away with a large haul of cigarettes 🤣
Looks like they waited for them to be loaded into the car just so they could seize it.
seems like a good idea to me, got the driver involved as well
They waited so they could find out if there were more people involved. It could have been a large group of smugglers and not just a couple of uninformed people.
Yea I know why they did that, I’m just saying from smugglers point of view it sucks to be played like that.
I like how they intentionally wait until the suitcases are in the car just so they can seize the car.

Even though I had nothing at all. Although, the UK officers might be more chill.
ruclips.net/video/6LHhWoJKp-Q/видео.html
Don’t feel bad. My stuff is always being searched and I’ve been tested for bomb residue many times due the the medications I carry and I take up to 2 liters of fluids on my carry on and several more liters in checked baggage ( I’m on home IV hydration so when I fly they go with). I get patted down and checked for bomb residue. I guess I’m just used to it by now.
I went thru TSA a couple years after 9/11, I hardly ever fly before or since.
So, here I am, Mr. Naive country boy and I am in line. I see ppl taking off shoes, I think, "I forgot about that", then, "damn shoulda wore flip flops".
We get closer and the lady at the x ray machine is super pissy ...
Then I notice her throwing out fluids, and the agents are like on edge about it AND OF COURSE I have these full shampoo bootles.
So to be proactive, I just go over to the trash cans they have scattered around and throw out ALL my fluids. Little, Big, whatever.
THAT makes the TSA gal in the lobby even more aggravated "Why are you throwing all that out??"
Almost aggressive on me, so I just bark back," I have no idea of the carry on rules, I never fly, but I am tired of being in line, Walmart sells everything I need when I land, so..... it all goes in the trash. "
That really ticks her and her TSA buddies off. They come over in a group, before they speak, I say, "guys listen, the managers here put 5 trash cans in this lobby so people can throw their own stuff out and the line moves faster" "I just threw mine out, you want that I should take it out of the trash?"
They didnt like that either.
Now that I'm older and wiser, I just UPS my stuff to the hotel and carry a very small overnight bag. And I wear Jesus sandals.

Yes and although they show the ones they actually catch here and where their assertion that the people are purposely trying to mislead them, turn out to be true, it is not that far fetched for someone who is not perfect in English to misunderstand a question and answer something else than was actually asked.
It just seems like they put a lot of weight on that.
What accent would you like them to have
Monte Python...Scottish customs agent. GENIUS!😂🤣👍
Yes it is. At Gatewick it was done to me, almost didn't get in to the UK.
That asian bloke with two companies and an accountant. These officers don't have a clue. Loads of directors get paid their personal allowance as a salary and take any profits out as dividends at the end of the year or leave it in their business account to re-invest in to their business. If I have a business and have money sitting in my account, I can technically withdraw it and use it for whatever I want and put it back in before my accountant does my taxes. These officers are really out to get innocent people for no reason. And he referred him to the tax man for an investigation for no reason ffs.
The officer : heavy accent
Immigrat : barely understands the basics..
the one and only every video !!! Like they will be speaking good english too!
put translators? ?
This one should be retitled "Officer Pete ruining peoples day" 🤣
Imagine going for a flight and coming home to an audit. This is just wild
He was headed to China and caring boatloads of money. They are removing money from the economy and sending it over to a foreign country. That screws up the economy of a country. The same thing happens in the US. That’s why they’re so hard on this guy
I'd have a hard time enjoying myself while I was away.
The Beatles were in the 90% Tax Bracket in the U.K. and had to come to America and found out that "only the Little People pay Taxes" in America.

£58 billion in U.K. taxes is avoided legally every year thanks to Brexit. But save for a holiday and you are in trouble.

Aren't we all, love...?
No. Lol

Meanwhile real cartel lords having a non-stop laughs watching these episodes of wannabe Sherlocks at the airport..lol

“Just going to swab her shoes and see if she’s a swallower.” Honestly how do you look at the opposite end of the body when you suspect someone is a swallower??? 😂😂😂
As a lyft driver I would be LIVID if my car was seized because of passengers decisions. So wrong! If all the contraband was in their luggage WHY are you stopping me from making a living. Ridiculous!
Might help to show the request in the app. I guess this wasn't Lyft or Uber.
Who said it was a lyft driver? And proving that you’re just a lyft driver and have no affiliation to those people would be very easy. You’d be on your way in no time. Also, at the end of the video he said that no one had come back to claim the car. So they were most likely smugglers. You completely fabricated this scenario out of thin air. Calm down.
@@bmjake wow um what?! It was not a call car like Lyft or Uber? So if it was they would be let go? But since it was a different company they had to stay? I’m totally confused by your comment. And Im doubly confused about me having to calm down. Im not hyped. Just sayen it sucks for the driver.
@@KC-ve8qz You said as a Lyft driver you would be LIVID. They said "Once outside, the women are joined by a mail accomplice", he claimed to be "rented" but then gave no proof of that claim. Then in the last 10 seconds of the video the narrator said the car has yet to be claimed. Showing documentation that he was just a car service and his job was really just to pick people up/drop them off, he could have proved he was innocent very easily.
@@bmjake yes he could. But how many hours did he lose of income that he can’t make back?! That’s my point. Doesn’t matter who he drives for.
First time i've seen someone get an income tax audit to get on a plane, that's some b.s. right there.
4 real!! Unbelievable!!

Its great!
"and how much do you make a month?"
Guy doesn't know exactly and customs is like SUSPICIOUS!!!
And I'm like, idk how much I make a month either mate. I'd have to do some hardcore math right then and there and would probably be 100% wrong because I can't do math.
exactly who the fuck ever gets asked that?
But he did say exactly 2000 first, then 2500 and then he said 200 a week which doesn't even round up to 1000 a month. He realized his income declaration was much lower than 2000 a month and that'd he outed himself, changing his story to 200 a week instead. And that was even without the extra rent income.
That said, if somebody asked you how much money you made in a month, here's a protip: How much did you declare in tax last year divided by 12. If that's too much to think about, divide by 10 and say roughly. At least you wont be off by twice the amount like this dope.
@Jody Owen so like I am American, but the hours I work per week vary wildly and I get weekly paychecks. Sometimes more than $200 sometimes less than $100.
@@JK-kb3cr I have no clue what my taxes were last year. So your tip is useless.
@Jody Owen Most certainly not 99%. The majority of americans work retail, where your pay fluctuates wildly.
You can see all the cigs lined up so easily in the scanners. Might've been better to try and just send them in the post.
