£800,000 Fraud Suspect On The Run

A suspected fraudster, whose audacious bid to swindle £800,000 out of the London Borough of Tower Hamlets was exposed just before he could get his hands on the cash, is being hunted by police.

Dave Don Thompson, 37, posed as a major contractor in negotiations with the local authority, but his scam was thwarted and the money transfer frozen and returned.

Tower Hamlets police are appealing for help in securing Thompson's arrest and indicate he has close links with South-East London, particularly Bexleyheath and Plumstead.
