Serial conwoman back behind bars following string of frauds

A SERIAL conwoman jailed for fleecing men she met on the internet was yesterday sent back to jail for three more years after admitting a string of fraud charges.

Emma Charlton, formerly known as Emma Golightly, wove a web of deceit in an attempt to fleece her grandmother and fiance out of £150,000 (€166,000).

The 25-year-old, of Walkerville, Newcastle, used stolen cheques in an attempt to book a lavish £73,000 (€80,000) wedding at a country house hotel.
