A man who made over £2 million selling preloaded set-top boxes has been jailed.
Halton Mark Anthony Powell, 44, of Maybank Avenue, Hornchurch, London, began his investiture with a company called Droidsticks Ltd in 2013. It was through his company that Powell sold the set-top boxes both in the shop and online.
An investigation by City of London Police's Intellectual Property Crime Unit (PIPCU) discovered that Powell had earned £2,344,949 via sales from the online marketplace. In August of this year, Powell pleaded guilty at Southwark Crown Court to supplying articles for use in fraud.
