BBC soap Eastenders has featured a pension scam storyline with a long-running character, 61-year-old Jean Slater, who is scammed into transferring her pension into a “high return investment” after receiving what she thought was a genuine free phone pension review.
The Pensions Regulator (TPR), Stop_Scams_UK, and adviser Nick Stapleton worked with EastEnders to highlight scammers’ tactics and the emotional and financial costs on victims.
