Brit Romance Scammer and Gambling Addict Heads to Prison

Sajad Hussain, a romance scammer from the UK who exploited women from dating websites to finance his gambling habit, is on his way to prison. His escapades involved fleecing three women of their money for almost a decade while being married to another.

Media outlet Swindon Advertiser reports that Hussain, a married man with two homes, was arrested in October 2020 following a report by one of his victims. From there, authorities initiated an investigation into the matter, revealing that he had conned the women out of £200,000 (US$250,900).

The investigation further disclosed that he had been using untraceable mobile phones to communicate with his victims over the seven-year period he perpetrated his scam. How he managed to keep from confusing all four women – he married his wife in 2018, five years into his plan – remains a mystery.
