Two fraudsters await sentence after €423,000 scam

Two men involved in a €800,000 fraud in which fake front companies and false identities were used will be sentenced later by Judge Tony Hunt at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

Darren Cahill (aged 35) and Stephen Doyle (aged 36) were involved with others in the elaborate fraud which continued over eight months. Its victims included multinationals as well as one Irish businessman who had to close one of his companies as a result of being duped of some €423,000.
