A REWARD has been offered for information which leads to the arrest of a fraudster who is wanted for a string of crimes across Scotland.
Pauline Flett, 31, is alleged to have defrauded a number of individuals, taking money and other items from them between October 2006 and March 2015.
Ms Flett, who is originally from Buckie, has been linked to crimes in Edinburgh, Glasgow, the Central Belt and the north of Scotland.
Police issued an appeal to track her down earlier this year and now Crimestoppers has put up a £2,000 reward for information which helps to bring her to justice.
Angela Parker, national manager for Crimestoppers Scotland, said: “Flett is believed to be involved in a number of crimes that have seen innocent victims scammed out of large sums of money.
“These victims deserve justice and it is vital that Flett is found to ensure that she cannot strike again.
“There are people out there who know where she is and I would urge you to do the right thing and contact Crimestoppers anonymously.
“We don’t take personal details, we can’t trace calls or information given online. No-one will ever know you contacted us. We don’t want to know who you are, just what you know.”
Ms Flett is believed to hide from justice by changing her appearance and moving round Scotland, having lived in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Grampian.
She is described as around 5ft 6in with a medium build, blonde hair and a bat tattoo on her left arm. She has also been known to use the alias Pauline Campbell.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
