    An alleged prolific fraudster who's offended across Auckland has been caught by Police

    An alleged prolific fraudster who's offended across Auckland has been caught by Police


    The Waitemata West Tactical Crime Unit last night took a 33-year-old man into custody, from a west Auckland address.

    Police allege he's been offending since December -- mostly through Facebook Marketplace, using fraudulent means to obtain vehicles and high-end electronics -- leaving victims thousands of dollars out of pocket.

    The man has been scheduled to appear in Waitakere District Court today, on seven charges of obtains by deception.
