However, Bennett's journey took an unexpected turn 25 years ago when he became the UK's first major victim of identity theft, an ordeal that left him without money or home. Transforming adversity into opportunity, Bennett channelled his experience into a groundbreaking Channel 4 Documentary, 'How To Steal An Identity', which not only captivated but also educated the public on the ease and dangers of identity theft.

He is also the author of the critically acclaimed book, 'Heard The One About Identity Theft?', offering insights into his personal ordeal with identity theft and the profound impact of making a documentary for the public good.
