A man sentenced to 5 years for scamming elderly people out of £100K by pretending to be a police officer.
Qays Aktar, 30, was sentenced to five years and one month in prison for leading a scam that defrauded eight elderly and vulnerable people, aged 65 to 83, of over £100,000.
Using temporary call centers in Norwich and London, he posed as a police officer in cold calls, falsely claiming victims were involved in banking fraud and demanding cash.
Targeting landline numbers linked to older individuals, the scheme exploited trust and caused serious financial and emotional harm.
Evidence from his phone, including burner devices and pre-paid SIM cards, helped authorities identify him after over 100 reports across Norfolk, Suffolk, Kent, Dorset, and Hampshire.
Aktar pleaded guilty to eight counts of conspiracy to commit fraud by false representation.
Police warn the public that no legitimate officer or bank employee will ever ask for cash to be withdrawn and handed over, urging anyone receiving such a request to hang up and report it immediately.
