    'Woman who pretended to have cancer to defraud charity of more than €99,000 jailed'

    Subtle hint in the headline.

    What sort of scum do you have to be to defraud a cancer charity?

    Astonishing sentence here in the UK for this woman. They really take the white collar crime seriously across the pond unlike us!

    On the fake degrees I personally know one or two who’ve played that one and are still getting away with it 30 years on.

    Sickie and faked CV doesn't cover the case. She preyed on the most vulnerable for financial gain. A very dangerous person.

    Almost makes you feel sorry for that Malaysian lad who took his bit on the side away for a dirty few nights, but told his Mrs he was going off on business to China for a few days..........




    And text his wife to inform her he had "just taken off" onboard flight MH370.

    “4 years for pulling an extended sickie and faking CV” was tongue in cheek, savage sentence all the same..
