A fraudster who dubbed himself "the Kardashian of Cheshire" has been jailed for six years after conning victims, including his own father and friends, out of thousands of pounds in a luxury handbag scam.
Jack Watkin, 26, used an "outward persona of someone wealthy and well connected" to persuade his victims to loan him large sums of money to invest in the purchase of Hermes handbags which were then to be sold on for a profit.
