A callous fraudster has been ordered to pay back just £1 after conning his friends, colleagues and ex-partner out of £113,513 in a fake investment scheme.

Matthew Normyle, 41, invited seven people to invest in his boiler business, which he claimed would ensure them modest returns after 90 days, whilst he was living in Rochdale.
