A conman who staged the theft of high-value classic cars to make bogus insurance claims has been handed a suspended prison sentence.
Danny Phipps, 32, of Lamberhurst, Kent, was sentenced at Maidstone Crown Court on Friday to 23 months’ imprisonment, suspended for 24 months, for multiple offences involving fraudulent claims against Aviva and RSA over a 13-month period. He must also repay the money he obtained through the scam under a confiscation timetable set by the court.
