A Salford University student who laundered the proceeds of a £200,000 lonely hearts scam has been jailed for three years.

Manchester Crown Court heard that the women were wooed by a man they believed to be called ‘John Creed’ or ‘Johnny Rissi’. Claiming to be a building contractor or architect working in Europe, the conman spent weeks winning the women over before asking for cash for ‘supplies’.

Women from across the globe were targeted and exploited. Women, who in most cases were vulnerable and lonely. Some took out loans and others have lost life savings.

While we strongly suspect - but cannot prove - that Jack was the person who was communicating with these women, what we can prove is that money has been transferred through his bank accounts.
