    Several of the clients affected said they had considered Upton as a personal friend and were devastated by his betrayal.
    This is apparently a very common thing with victims of conmen. They refuse to believe that the conman deliberately set out to deceive them and even feel sorry for him having the bad luck which caused them to lose their money. The best conmen are very believable characters.

      More interesting is how long Bagpuss is going to continue to vent his spleen. He seems to be becoming Darren.

          If you lost £100 from it I am sure you should not shut the hell up.

            I could agree with you, but then we would both be wrong!

              I haven't been able to talk about this on the site for almost 12 months. You may not be interested in the case but there are a fair few who are.

              The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

              But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                Im sure there is a film in this somewhere 'Rouge Accountant' or 'Accountant on a plane'. I think Billie Piper should play the mistress and one of Jed Wood Darren.

                  You could have both Jed Wood.

                  It would make it easier for them to be the 2 personalities of Darren.

                      Is that because he left so many in the red?
