Should have trailed the car with the cigarettes to their home so that when the luggage went inside the house then they could seize that too.

Great insight to what goes on behind the scenes at airports. I do wish that the background music was much quieter so I could hear more of the story.
The background music really is too loud. I sometimes have to turn on the closed captions so I can read what they are saying.
Muzak. Ticky ticky ticky crapola.
17:50 - "I chipped in too" says the stay at home mum. Solid defence.
"The cigarettes will be incinerated"
I've got a hunch that they were going to end up incinerated whether you seized them or not
🤣
that put a smile on my face, hahaha
underrated
Doesn't seem smart to *burn* cigarettes.
Lol this comment is pure gold.
What I get from this is to
1: Never look nervous cause officers have shitty intuition.
2: Dont bring almost empty suite cases.
3: Make sure to tell them you saved up for a year for your trip cause they apparently never heard of such a thing.
saved up for a year with no jobs - makes sense, ya
@@pennym1056 Theres something called "under the table" pay, ya know? Just because a person doesnt have a traditional job doesnt mean they're not earning a paycheck
@@pennym1056 he probably saved during his entire working career...you know some people do manage their finances...and don't just spend everything as soon as they get it!
No wonder we left England 🇺🇸

I’m AMAZED that cigarette smugglers are not fined!!
They get a “warning” on the first incident. After that, its fines and/or jail!
they were fined indirectly. They paid for 40,000 cigarettes only to now make a 0% profit off the expense. They lost decent money.
@@Ryanfinder226 They were fined directly. Right at the end of the video, the narrator says that they must pay the duty owed on the cigarettes to get their car back.
@@beeble2003 That's an excellent idea. There is a shop in the area where I shop. It is run by 3 asylum seekers. Only recently did I learn that they sell cigarettes and tobacco, all of it illegally brought in.
I notified the authorities and they quietly did a sneaky check on the shop.
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.
Why the hell is so many cigarettes
I'm astounded the number of people on drugs, it's scary.
Is it just me or does anyone else get triggered when they start harassing people over carrying cash? It’s legal to go with under 10k in cash undeclared so why is this guy even being questioned?

I dunno - he had 30,000+ cigarettes - with a value of maybe £15,000. Seizing his £2k car for a search seems appropriate
@@searcherfortruthlayton1665 Seizing the car is a big stretch. It would be different if they were stopped by the customs on the road. These customs deliberately wait until they load the luggage to the car, with intention to seize it. It's overuse the power!
@@skoluba I hear ya, but I couldn't care less if smugglers lose everything. Hes denying revenue which is spent on the NHS, roads, police, and child services etc. Dont smuggle, dont worry about losing your car.

@@searcherfortruthlayton1665 I agree 100% with you. I just tried to make a point in the matter of principle. All it looked like it was a smuggling trip. Such people deserve punishment!

LMFAOOO
17:50 Stay at home mum: I chipped in too. Lmao. You're traveling with your UNEMPLOYED husband, and your a stay at home mum and you chip in to pay for the trip also? WITH WHAT??? AND WHY if you're married??? Lmaooooo
Q
Sherlock Holmes they ain't! 😂
Exactly!! SECRET LOVERS! 🤭
I can't imagine being at the airport and being asked how I paid for my trip and how much money I make a year. Crazy.
Exactly. Like what about the people who have been saving up in a little jar for years. 😭
And how you met your spouse and have you ever been arrested in your life.
Rude people
That poor chinese guy!!so intrusive
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.
37,000 cigarettes? I'll have 40 cups of coffee with that!!
a bit harsh on the unemployed couple. the comment of "they were celebrating being unemployed" is unprofessional as well. They might have had a hard year
Plus whose to say they didn't have savings when they became unemployed. There are people out there who can survive while being out of work
I agree with all of you, for every story out there there's someone living it
Forsaken Pumpkin yes, because there’s such a thing as crime stats
obrbob194 high life? Maybe the immigrants (they get extra benefits due to not being used to our currency..I kid you not. My mrs works for the home office in Croydon
Did everybody -including the narrator, not hear that the guy was made redundant -in many cases you get at least a few grand, that should last you a bit and if the couple want a nice holiday to cheer themselves up -good on them.
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!!!
They want everyone using bank cards and not carrying cash ..
i always use cash when i can.

When we were both unemployed for a short period it was the perfect time for a trip. Being unemployed doesn’t always mean you are broke.
Also the benefits system gives heaps of money to afford holidays to the carribean as well as big screen tvs and iphones etc.
Hate me for this comment, but I know long term unemployed people who have done this.
@@onlineamiga unemployment right now is the new employment. fuck off ever day and get paid extra money by the gov. i had the unemployment fraud attempted on me and found out i could make 4 grand more a year if is was unemployed. I'm not trash though and I will earn my wages
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.
This is wrong to me. Who can judge them for and when having nice or expensive holidays
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
The outrageous amount of TAX on cigarettes' is abusive, here... the UK is one BIG 'fine' factory!
Don't smoke then
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.
They had 37,000 cigarettes when the limit is 200
Gets let off with a warning
all the merch confiscated. got to hurt. and they said repeated offense will result in more than a warning
Exactly! They attempted to steel thousands from country - just warning...
You don’t get a warning for smuggling weed though do you
I don't understand why they (all four) were not arrested for smuggling. Let the court hand them a wrist slap, do not ket them go until they post bond.
Stupid really stupid Law
They should have seized the plane that was used to transport the cigarettes.
Hahaha
It's very inane. I am truly amazed at the amount of altercations these 'elite' officers are getting into with passengers over very isolated incidents of petty crimes at worst when there are far larger security issues at hand
To seize the car is enough
Yea lock up the cabin crew. Definitely guilty
Jack Kruese they could of found maddie if they just did that
love going through customs and pissing them off after going all over the planet and having stayed in top hotels and telling them i'm a factory worker i drag out telling them i've won lotto
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)
"A holiday to celebrate been unemployed" said no one ever! That dude was just throwing shade for the man not been in work. When in reality he knows nothing about his situation.
They aren't there to make you feel good about your choices in life, they're there to make sure you aren't breaking any laws.

Yes and they're not meant to make you feel bad either. Do his job and keep opinions to himself. He says he was made redundant so usually that's a payout, and he's questioning how he can afford it. The bloke may have worked hard all his life putting money away in a savings account.
@@Lamebred. agreed
When I wasn't working, I had a ton of money saved up, so I decided to take a few trips around the world before getting back into a job.
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?
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.

@G Kab Maybe because they're harmful to health - just a guess!
@G Kab There's often very few checks during the manufacturing process in the countries that produce them cheaply. Selling them at a discount would also provide a monetary incentive for airlines to perform illegal seizures.
"how do you afford a holiday like that if you're unemployed"... They look nearing retirement age. How is it so surprising they can afford nice holidays? Investments and savings can easily get you "nice" holidays when you're 60.
They look 30-40! Early retirement I guess.
@@tonibauer2949 jealous because you can't manage your money!
Aquil Hall Huh? Where did I ever indicate jealousy or resentment? I am all for early retirement if one can afford it.

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.
Yep...You can definitely feel the power trip these agents are on...
Right. I was feeling the same way.

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
Most people get nervous when questioned by the authorities that is such a lame excuse they use to question or search you more
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.

@@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.
One country I used to live in was Turkey. I used to return to Dublin for holidays. One year, I had a suitcase inside another suitcase. Well, I
was going to do some shopping (not ciggies or drink, as I do not use either) but clothes etc. The faces of the Turkish Customs men at Bodrum Airport was hilarious. My big case went back and forth through on the conveyor belt. Until I explained, "me go shopping in Dublin for clothes etc" they just laughed and nodded. I wanted clothes not copies, even though their copies of clothes can be lovely. I was a biggish woman at that time so...
It did give us all a laugh at the time.
According to these customs agents, you're not supposed to go on holiday if they think you are poor, unemployed, retired, carry a suitcase, wear clothes and have money on you. And you certainly are suspicious if you are carrying cash to spend on that holiday....how intrusive, disrespectful, interfering, harassing and time wasting can they be to travelers, who are already stressed by travel....
i agree 110% with you
of decades of travelling Ive done the UK immigration have been the most intrusive and irrational . And that's not even touching on the horrendous way they treated my teenage daughter.
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.
He understood what she said acting like you don’t understand is a very old trick.
hell, it appears that filing your taxes will get you locked up
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!
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.
If you are innocent don't be scared,
I have not been stopped ever at ANY airport.
"2 days?"
"Yeah"
"1 night?"
I would have responded, no 3 nights 4 mornings and 1/2 an evening ... and then go straight to jail

i was detained and placed under house arrest in Vancouver, BC back in 1985. Reason ...the company I was to work for in Canada didn't meet me at the border with my required work papers ( I live in Tennessee). Iwas taken to a holding ares and held 14 hours . I told the Immigration officer who was responsible for me, to hold me as long as he wished. as the clause in my contract required the contractor to pay me $75.00 Per hour for any delays thru no fault of my own, in addition to the base contract amt ! Picked up a cool , easy relaxing $1050.00 EXTRA !
The voice is so high and clear when they speak on people that are guilty of smuggling but when they are wrong there voices below low and quiet as if they are disappointed! This is no longer a job for them this has become a blame game

I remember once I asked for 200 cigarettes & the store sold me 400 by mistake & I didn’t notice until I got on the aeroplane. I decided to go straight to “Goods to Declare” & explained the situation. They told me I could either pay the VAT or they could just take 200 & leave me with 200. I chose for them to take 200 but they told me I did the right thing declaring as it meant no fine & no punishment. If I got searched in the other channel I would have been fined & probably got a HR meeting, I’m cabin crew & follow customs rules to the letter.
“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??? 😂😂😂

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.
Was at sn Airport in Spain that had a bag of drugs explode in the cargo bay. Contaminating every bag on the plain.
that officer has definitely done "a bit of charlie"
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
Exactly I just commented the same thing.
@@MsNikkieMichelle how is £3000 a lot of money? sure it could be savings or a loan or from other sources
@@mpat100 money laundering across boarders. Hence the limit. I don’t carry cash when traveling abroad I wait till I get to my destination
The thing is to declare your money. You can bring as much as you want in most countries.
@@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
They make them carry their own siezed bags. "These are now in our custody, but you carry them"
If bags are seized, then the passenger shouldn't be carrying them

I wouldn’t carry a fucking thing
Thank you Customs Officers for your good work in catching the smugglers!
Many people are nervous. Plus family could have help pay for their vacation, wife mom or his dad or friends could have helped to pay for it. Most important is that when they worked, that money was saved by them working hard
Seizing the car was a little much even my cat thinks so.

"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.
If they went into a Taxi, would they have seized that as well?
All that fuss for tobacco
A person I worked with used to regularly buy a suitcase full of cigarettes every holiday he had, he would then sell them
and that would fund his next holiday. He never paid for a trip abroad in 5 years, never did get stopped. I wonder how
many get away with it. Never ending job, pity the government doesn’t consider people coming into the country
illegally a crime also.
Last time I was at the airport, I got randomly swabbed. I wasn't carrying anything and they ovbs didn't find anything but I was still shaking 😂
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.
AA Sharp I would rather that than being unsafe
William Huan: How do you SAVE MONEY when neither one of them is working? He's going on vacation instead of job hunting... brilliant move.
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.
Jamaica ain't that expensive too
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.
what happens if go through something to declare part do you get to keep your exceeded over-the-limit items for being honest?
On one flight we had a couple were stopped on the stairs and told to empty their bags which was so wrong, in the open broke all privacy rules there are. The airport customs officer just tipped out the suitcase contents on the floor so everyone could see.
in sydney if you get pulled up for having $3000 you just say "i need it for a taxi home".......
Sounds about right, aren't the big cities over 500 miles apart in Oz.
@@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. So once landed if you don't have something arranged you pay through the nose.
😂😂😂
'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.
Geez, I speak the same language as that Scot and I can barely understand him… how can someone from a non-English speaking country possibly comprehend any of his questions?
Very rotten move to let the cigarette people put the luggage in the car, they could have seized the bags inside the airport. Shame on the authorities.
Seems to me that checking his taxes is above and beyond reasonable measures. I don like that at all.
hasaheadachenow Shirley you jest! How come?
That's British officialdom for you, always fkn harsh, specially with taxes.
European people are racist to most asian people
It's invasive and disgusting
IRS would inspect taxes in USA
"the man produces a small cannabis pipe. officers suspect drug use"
how'd they suss that one eh?
Lots of training and experience. A keen eye. It’s a lost art
It's funny how it turns from weed to coke and heroin tho 😂
It feels shady that they have the right to scrutinize people's financial situation at the damn airport. Piss off.
I'd be nervous too if they started questioning me regardless of being innocent! 😮
