Year in jail for duping €2,400 out of victims

A Done Deal “scam artist” who duped six victims to part with €2,400, including one man to pay €160 for two fictitious Adele tickets, has been jailed for one year.

At Ennis District Court, Judge Patrick Durcan said that Liam Casey, aged 27, of Springfield Drive, Celbridge, Co Kildare, had abused the trust of his six victims.

Casey is currently serving a sentence in jail for a previous offence and is studying psychology in prison.
