Teenager turned £2,000 into £21million in a year
Discussion
As usual, its absolutely horrible reporting though. If he really had things like a £180k Ferrari then you could make the assumption a £100k fraud was just a deal gone horribly wrong, and very easily righted by giving someone a cheque.
Given the Ferrari appears to be part of a bigger scam / set of lies and never actually existed, I'm guessing he took peoples money to invest. Or he just got a load of credit lines for consumer goods based off the Mails last shoddy reporting
The quality of reporting in that rag is truly embarrassing... I don't know why I bother reading it (other than it being free)

"After admitting the fraud to police, Cook told officers: 'This has had a big effect on my family and completely ruined my chances of getting a job in finance'."
Did he really think he'd get a job in finance with 2 GCSEs? Or was he hoping that the interviews he did would lead to him being "head hunted" by companies?

Local papers in the South West are so full of bullcrap that it's a genuine shock when they come out with even the tiniest nugget of truth. The tiniest stories are usually blown out of all proportion, I think it's because half the time they feel they have to make stuff up as there's no genuine drama to report on much of the time.
