Nigerian With 128 Identities Arrested By London Police by Niiade(m): 8:53pm On Jul 07, 2011
Nigerian With 128 Identities
Arrested By London Police A Nigerian, David Peters, 30, who has
defrauded banks to the tune of £636,000 by
using 128 different identity cards was arrested
by the police in London yesterday. Police investigation revealed that Daniel Peters
had in a series of scams duped banks,
mortgage lenders and government agencies,
disguising with different identities. The police told a court in London yesterday
that David Peters obtained 74 fake licences
after applying for them at a string of rural post
offices. The Nigerian also stole £168,575 (N45 million)
in benefits from three London councils by
claiming to be both tenant and landlord at the
same address. According to the Sun of London newspaper
and the Daily Mail also published in London,
Peters also got £250,000 (N62.5 million)
mortgage for a house in Edgware, North
London and another mortgage on a flat in
Essex worth £157,495 (N39 million) and also took more than £60,000 (N15 million) from
Lloyds TSB in series. The London police claimed that the Nigerian
committed these frauds since 2002 until
December last year when they nabbed him. Peters, also named Oluseyi Jeremiah Adebayo
on court documents admitted 29 of the
charges of fraud and being in possession of
false identification documents. Police detective Inspector Richard Fisher of City
of London said after the hearing: “This is the
biggest case of identity theft we have ever
investigated. The sheer number of the fake
identities we discovered are evidence of how
Peters was a full time fraudster funding a life of excess at the expense of others.” Police investigation revealed that Peters was
also known as Jerry Alfred Zaandam, Goke
Jerry Adeyimi, David Johnson Brown, Kevin
Michael Peters, John Donald Nelson, Desmond
Brown Jackson, etc. The police said they have brought an end to
Peters day of deceit and warned others who
like to act as someone they are not as a means
to commit crime. He is expected to be sentenced tomorrow.
