YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Caller Adam's 'magnificent tale' of turning detective after falling victim to a scam has James O'Brien in stitches.

Discussing how the lack of faith in the police has caused some victims of crime to take matters into their own hands, Adam explains how he fell for a fake email asking for the tracking number of the phone he was selling online.

While James initially finds Adam's story relatively tame, he soon finds himself engrossed as the caller details how he called in sick at work, drove the company car to Manchester, stole the parcel from a postman and then got chased down the street.

'At one point I had two of them chasing me', he reveals.
