A fraudster tried to claim up to £12,000 from various insurance companies by making false reports that her Gucci bags, iPhones and TVs had been stolen or lost. Rebecca Gallimore, 29, made a total of nine reports to the companies in a bid to get cash compensation.
But she was rumbled after her accounts and receipts were checked. In total, over £2,000 was paid out to Gallimore. She was arrested and after officers raided her home, they found a further £4,000 in cash.
Pleading guilty to nine counts of fraud by false representation and possession of criminal property, she was today (Wednesday) handed a suspended sentence at Minshull Street Crown Court.
