A conman who fleeced his partner out of £70,000 after "stringing her along" for years has been jailed. Romeo fraudster Andrew Camfield, 59, took so much money from her that she had to borrow cash from her family to meet his demands.
He claimed to be due an inheritance, but the money never materialised. The victim, named as Louise, was first introduced to Camfield by a pal at Christmas 2018.
An "intense" relationship began and by February 2019 Camfield had started to ask Louise for financial assistance. Camfield continued to defraud Louise who said she was "so in love" with him that she didn’t see any warning signs.
