Conman in holiday scam ordered to repay just £1

A smiling conman who netted over £100,000 from a holiday scam has been ordered to repay just £1 by the courts after it was found he has no assets.

Dean Oliver, 46, who was pictured grinning following a Birmingham Crown Court appearance, was eventually jailed for three years for the con which saw 19 holiday makers ripped off to the tune of £26,000.

But after a probe into the Jamaican’s assets was told that while Oliver had a criminal lifestyle which raked in £103,649, he had no assets or cash left to seize.
