Work experience teenager in £13K law firm fraud 9/07/2008 A work experience girl who tried to steal more than £60,000 from a top law firm was jailed for five months yesterday. Titilayo Olaifa joined Freshfields but within three days had used their computer system to generate 11 company cheques. She forged her boss's signature and paid six cheques into her bank, a court heard. But the City London law firm became suspicious. Four were stopped in June 2007, but two totalling £13,500, were cashed. Olaifa, now 19, of Clapton, East London, admitted theft and fraud but refused to say what happened to the cash. At Southwark crown court, Judge Martin Beddoe said she "betrayed" the firm's trust. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/topstories/2008/07/09/work-experience-teenager-in-13k-law-firm-fraud-89520-20636776/ |

A pregnant council officer has been jailed for two years for stealing £110,000 and sending much of the money to her mother in Nigeria. Bintu Tijani, 35, a children's services manager for Peterborough City Council, drew up fake invoices to steal 10% of her department's annual budget. At Peterborough Crown Court, Tijani admitted sending £80,000 to her mother. Recorder Peter Rouch QC, told her she had committed "a sophisticated and serious fraud" in a position of trust. "You were placed in a position of significant trust and, with determination, you committed a serious and sophisticated fraud to steal a substantial sum of money, tax free." Ebraham Mooney, prosecuting, told the court Tijani had created an elaborate scheme using 12 fraudulent invoices from imaginary companies to obtain the cash. Unemployed man He said she was caught by council fraud investigators following her suspension from work on an unrelated matter in October 2007. Bintu Tijani, responsible for an annual budget of £1.2m for child support strategy, was sacked a month later and the evidence was passed to police. She got the job at the council in May 2004, despite having disclosed a criminal conviction from 10 years earlier for credit card fraud. Hugh Vass, in her defence, said his client admitted the offences at the first opportunity but could not explain where all the money had gone. "She says £80,000 was sent to her mother in Nigeria, and she was also involved with a man who was unemployed and claims she had got into debt subsidising his lifestyle. "Miss Tijani acknowledges she should feel nothing but shame and realises she has let a lot of people down." A claim to claw back Tijani's illegal profits has started under the Proceeds of Crime Act. |

They are simply criminals. I guess UK is paying back for their colonial lootings. Atleast, those in Nigeria knows how there 'people' get all the money they sent to them: criminal proceeds. |

This is greed at it's height. Did she just land abroad to think that she can cash those cheques like that without them raising eyebrows?. She is more stupid than the crime she committed. |
