Transport bosses are cracking down a scam that sees Tube passengers avoid paying for journeys by using a genuine concession card registered to someone else.
Passengers are using passes which give free off-peak travel to the cardholder, such as the Freedom Pass for the over-60s, but cannot be used by anyone else.
In a new Channel 5 documentary, one fare dodger is finally caught after he avoided paying for more than 200 journeys using a card registered to a female relative.
A team of Transport for London investigators called Tracey, Sarah and Dan tell the passenger that 'the game's up' after apprehending him at Preston Road station.
They had been investigating the man's misuse of a high-value travel pass which gives free off-peak travel to the cardholder but cannot be used by anyone else.
