£18,000 fraud at new Airport control tower
Monday 29th March 2010, 2:56PM BST.
A SURVEYOR who created a fake company so he could get paid for work at the new Airport control tower has been sent to prison for two and half years.
Carl Vernon Shore – also known as Karl Shaw – was trusted by his employers, Style Windows, to supervise a contract at the Airport, the Royal Court heard on Friday.
The 45-year-old got Alufix Ltd to do the work for £14,000 but told his employers that Jager Contracts, a fake company, had completed the work for £18,000.
He then pretended that his bank account was that of Jager Contracts and got the money paid to him, the court heard.
