A conman who funded a playboy lifestyle by cheating pensioners out of their life savings broke down in tears after being jailed for seven years. Godwin Nwaofor, 36, kept a 'suckers list' of potential victims to send bogus letters saying they had won the Australian Lottery.
The Nigerian national received around £1million from the scam and blew the money on luxury cars, gold jewellery and expensive champagne at top nightclubs in London.Nwaofor was a ‘willing and enthusiastic lieutenant’ to the mastermind of the con, another Nigerian, Frank Onyechonam, who was nicknamed ‘Fizzy’ for his love of vintage champagne.Onyeachonam was jailed eight years last year, after he was exposed as the chief player in the scam.
