Irish Bee Sensations

I remember the case at the time too …. and talk of people who were fooled by how 'lovely' Croen was ….. that being the name she was known by in her Bee Sensations years …… I know people who are involved in GAA and they met DJ …. said same about him ….. very nice and approachable …..

Croen/Julia/Cecilia/etc were all names this person called herself ….. but was unaware of the cancer angle and also that she was a pretend preacher until the documentary ….. but the fact that she was able to fool people in 3 different countries in different sectors like psychology, religion, and artisan food for so long is amazing …..

There is a fine line between the scammer, the chancer politician and the unscrupulous salesman of course ….. and this one would have the credentials for all these …. she was 2 out of 3 of them for certain just never went into politics for obvious reasons! ……

I think it is important to remind people of scammers esp in this online era …… programmes like Swindlers are important and let's hope they warn people of the dangers of increasingly clever con artists that arise every day …..

That pretty much sums her up ….. interesting to note the status of Twitter aka X back then ….. apparently it was then a useful marketing tool unlike the cesspool of bickering it became after that …… I remember that Boozy Bees thing being mentioned ….. this potcheen sounds like some of these OTT Gaeltacht pronunciations of the name Katelyn!! ……

I can imagine Croein aka Croen aka Julia aka Cecilia roaming from Aldi/Lidl to Aldi/Lidl all over Limerick City, Cork City, and regional towns buying up jars of honey, cherries and alcohol for their 'products' and then jarring/labelling them in her kitchen before deciding on some outrageous price per jar …… but where did she get the jars ???? …..

The name Croen or Croein does seem to be made up ….. was looking it up and only her came up for Croein ….. Croen is a Welsh word for skin and a surname not first name …..
