A chef who was scammed out of his life savings after falling victim to a romance scam has issued an urgent warning to others.
Alexandr Gutu, who lives in Matlock, Derbyshire, was conned out of £42,000 by someone who tricked him into thinking they were in a relationship.
The 33-year-old, originally from Moldova, had been working up to 320 hours a month at his two jobs to save enough money to buy his first home.
