Well done Dave! We need everyone to come forward who has been scamed by him, we need all the evidence we can get, i've met him face to face, over the moon he is in the nick!
I have placed links on 2 fly fishing forums and the Whitby Sea Anglers facebook page! All had multiple victims!
I love the irony of his calling the police on himself!
As mentioned before, sadly it's unlikely that many victims will see recompense from him, but if he was already on bail, and had broken his terms and so on... maybe the courts will have lost any patience they might have had with him and stick him inside for a longer stretch? It's pretty clear he's a career criminal.
Brilliant, well done! Glad the police are now facing up to the weight of evidence. Please post and pm me the station phone number and incident number.
Thanks to secretmole for making me aware of this news too.

I have posted it on a couple of angling forums and on Whitby Sea Anglers facebook page....
Well judging by a post made on a Facebook group it's come to fruition ....
Hi Gary
Just a quick email to let you know that David Graham was charged and remanded in police custody on 13th August. He attended Cheletneham Magistrates Court on 14th August where he finally saw sense and pleaded guilty to 8 counts of fraud.
He was sentenced to 26 weeks imprisonment, and is currently residing at her majesty's pleasure. The good news is that there will obviously be no trial, and therefore there is no requirement for yoi attend court. The bad news is that there appears to be no order for him to pay compensation, despite me placing a recommendation on the file. Which in a nutshell means that it is highly unlikely that you will be compensated for your losses.
Welsh Born And Welsh Bred ..... And When I Die.... I'll Be Welsh Dead
Learn from the book of D.I.L.L.I.G.A.F and remember, YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID !!!
The good news is if you are one of the 8 he pleaded guilty to it is easier to get a small claims or county court judgement against him for your money back. If you are not one of the 8 you still stand a greater chance now he has pleaded guilty to 8 counts of fraud. Goes against his character somewhat....
These 8 counts where already pending before i got duped by him, there is still a seperate criminal investigation ongoing regarding the people who came forward from the Gunstar Advert.
looks like there are plenty more charges to come yet.
hope he likes porridge
