Six Nations ticket scam victim tells how Limerick fraudster posed as Cork Con rugby official

The London Irish rugby official said: "I think Sheedy is incredibly intelligent. If he had taken a different direction in life, he would have been a very successful PR man."

Patrick Sheedy was this week sentenced to nine months in jail for conning a London Irish rugby official out of €7,610 for non-existent Six Nations rugby tickets.

The serial conman who conned a London Irish rugby official out of €7,610 for non-existent Six Nations rugby tickets deserves "an honours certificate" for the homework and research he put into the scam.

That is according to the latest victim of fraudster, Patrick Sheedy (52) of Cliona Park, Moyross, Limerick, who was this week sentenced to nine months in jail for the deception.
