The ground team are dispatched to stop a woman from Woking paying out to a crypto scam, but everything seems to be going against them, including the local roadworks.

The cryptocurrency scammers based in Albania are back at it as the team listen in. This group claim to help their victims recover lost investments, but in reality, they are just looking to steal more money.

With efforts to get through on the phone failing, the ground team are dispatched to try to prevent a woman from Woking paying out, but local roadworks throw a spanner into the plan. As the scam nears its conclusion, Nick and Harleen watch on helplessly as ground interceptors Meea and Harriet do their utmost to beat the traffic and reach the woman in time.

The team also join forces with ethical hacker Dan to investigate and confront a man from Cameroon claiming to sell horses on social media.
