The alleged fraud saw over 200 victims lose their life savings and pensions 💔
Earlier today, former The Only Way Is Essex star Lewis Bloor attended court as he is put on trial for conspiracy to defraud following a shocking £3million diamond scam.
Joseph Jordan, 29, from Waltham Cross, Hertfordshire, George Walters, 29, from Beckenham, Kent, Max Potter, 25, of Enfield, Middlesex, Nathan Wilson, 28, of Brentwood, Essex, and Simon Akbari, 27, from Loughton, Essex, all stand trial alongside Lewis. Two companies operating under the names 'Imperial Assets Solutions' and 'Henderson & Forbes' are associated with the alleged fraud, and according to prosecutor David Durose QC, all six defendants were involved in both, apart from Lewis.
"All of those involved tell a similar story. Every single one of them has lost their money", added the prosecutor. Mr Durose added: "Those representations that were made to those customers were false, they were lies. This meant £5,000 investments being made for diamonds which were originally purchased for only around £750.
