How to avoid scammers when you book your next holiday
The problems can start before you arrive at your destination

In this week's episode of Which? Shorts, we explain how holiday scams are more likely to catch you out before you actually arrive at your destination.
Our advice will help you stay aware of dodgy emails that land in your inbox before you head off for your well-deserved break.
This episode was read by James Rowe, and based on Lauren Bell's article that was originally published in the September / October 2025 issue of Which? Travel Magazine.
