The UK Crown Prosecution Service secured a confiscation order requiring convicted romance fraudster Mark Acklom to repay £125,000 within three months or face an additional two years in prison, with the court agreeing his total fraud amounted to £710,000. The report outlines his history of deception, extraditions between Switzerland, the UK, and Spain, his 2019 guilty plea to five fraud counts totaling £300,000, and ongoing efforts to recover proceeds of crime despite doubts about repayment.
