King of the Swindlers fraudster Alistair Greig wins fight to slash jail sentence Updated: 11/05/2021, 2:27 pm © DC Thomson A prolific north-east fraudster has won his bid to have his prison sentence cut. Alistair Greig, 67, was jailed for 14 years in April 2020 for conning at least 165 people out of a total of £13.2 million in what has been called Scotland’s biggest ever fraud case. He will now serve 10 years after his counsel successfully argued similar conmen had received lighter sentences and that he was suffering from health problems. Most of Greig’s victims were from the north-east and many were roped in after their loved ones recommended the scam, genuinely believing it was legitimate because of Greig’s advice.
