IMDB Entry

Hunting down the fraudsters lurking in the shadows of Scotland’s £7 billion whisky industry, reporter Sam Poling goes undercover to investigate organised crime’s latest money spinner: cask whisky investment.

Sam meets people duped by the criminals into handing over, and losing, all of their savings, and she goes on the trail of the missing millions. She uncovers an international criminal network, confronting those at the heart of it through secretly filming a convicted con artist and tracking down a shady businessman with a dark past.

The investigative documentary, reported by Sam Poling, originally aired on BBC Scotland and BBC iPlayer before being released internationally later that year.
