Michael Brain; cash card Casanova

| September 6, 2016

Michael Brain

Our buddy Bratdog sends us a link to the UK’s Daily Mail which tells the story of Michael Brain who pretended to be a wounded Royal Marine veteran to cheat women out of their money.

The fraudster, of no fixed address but previously from Plympton, Devon, admitted nine offences of fraud and five of theft at Plymouth Crown Court.

He was jailed for four years and given an indefinite Criminal Behaviour Order banning him from dating and gambling websites.

Brain was also barred from wearing any military uniform or medals unless by dint of service.

[…]

Brain’s offences took place between 2012 and 2015, netting him more than £40,000.

One of his victims, a 75-year-old Cornish woman, loaned him £20,055 to pay various bills after meeting through the website Badoo.

According to the article, he had been convicted and jailed for more than a year for similar behavior recently, but it was a good way to make money, I guess. The judge in that case named him the “cash card Casanova”.

He claimed that his disability was due to military sexual trauma – I’m sure his wish will come true in prison.

Things not to think about when sucking prison cock

“They said I have to “work fast”. I suppose it is because lunch is served in 15 minutes. But why are all those smokes stacked up on the top bunk when I don’t smoke?”

Never give bums money. Offer to buy them a cheeseburger and see how fast they leave.

I actually did that once, and the bum asked for a steak!
I went off on him. I was working as a private security guard at the time making $6/hr and eating PBJ for lunch.
A week or two later I was walking past “his” corner, and saw him with a wad of bills as thick as my fist. Kinda convinced me that I didn’t need to offer my hard-earned cash to a street bum, but find another way to help the poor.

Maybe I’m just stupid, as I do see why they would have banned him from gambling web sites. But why did they ban him from dating? How’s he gonna get through the weekends in prison, and especially the annual prison prom?
