Named Holden/BBC Scam Interceptors publicity, identical syndicated programme paragraphs and source-specific attempted victim loss/housing pretext support a qualified media-work family across windows. Police notification, programme journalism and confrontation are not police investigation or ten independent cases. Same URL source revisions remain preserved; sparse descriptions do not borrow victim facts.
