‘Fantasist’ jailed for £1m fraud

A British con-artist was just sentenced to five years in prison, for scamming people out of their money. Anthony Rose created a fake company and used that to take money away from investors. He duped investors into believing that his company was worth over 1 million dollars. However, the company did not exist. He used the money to finance trips around the world, and to buy expensive commodities. His ex-wife was in it as well. She has pleaded guilty and received 18 months conditional charges.
