Yes that, or put him into forced manual LABOUR until its all paid off, if only this guy conned the wrong people and ended up tortured, what a creature he is, that would have been better
...surely she, his wife, must have wondered where all the money was coming from and the sudden changing of addresses too and different countries at that, so literally on the run. Still I suppose if she was soaked up in the nice lifestyle and the beautiful clothes and luxury living, who was she to complain, some women just live under their spouses thumb and sounds like she did, not asking questions, along with the justice system of the UK, Spain and Switzeland. An unbelievable story told through a great documentary that I must admit I enjoyed, although I felt so much anger at the gall he had right from the start as a teenager...especially when his father lost his business and the other guy lost his business although his wife could see through him, as she was questioning the fact that he was just handing him cash whilly-nilly, eventually also resulting in the break-up of his marriage. I think he might NEED to be on the run once he does become free again, as there must be a lot more he has conned, who wont come forward because they are ashamed that they "joined the club of those being conned by him" so would prefer to deal with it themselves, this wouldnt surprise me, although I could understand if they did but to me, he is not worth doing time for. Basically he should be made to pay it all back and then suggest that he gets a job as a "cart-boy' in a supermarket carpark...."Waitrose" would be right up his street... seeing as its a trifle upmarket......!!!
Wow what a dangerous psychopath - truly amazing how this man can fool those highly intelligent business people and the police and detectives in all those countries!! For all the wrong he has done, his prison sentences are totally ridiculous. I feel so sorry for all those people he ripped off.
" I'm a secret agent but don't tell anyone ". Yeah that makes perfect sense Not trying to blame the victim just trying to point out the absurdly of becoming the victim
Conmen like this wouldn't last long if there weren't so many naive pigeons just begging to be fooled. I've been there myself and I can hardly believe how foolish I was. But I'm thankful that I got fooled once. It has taught me to NEVER stop questioning. Friends will understand why.
More or less the same but would have got to keep the spoils of his labors. These narcissistic idiots are all the same, they think they're smarter because they spool a yarn but inevitably their whole life crashes around them. This is why most of them keep mobile. There's more of these idiots out there than people realize and it's a good idea to be wary of charming people who come into your life from far away.
I don't think he would have been as driven, part of being a sociopath is not being able to achieve true happiness, so they instead chase status, thrills and danger.
I get amazed on how come a criminal can change his name so easily. It just helps him to continue his tracks in crime. He deluded everybody, and in a deal with the prosecutors, from 20 charges he plaided guilty in 5. Because he had served already some time, he got a very short time in jail. Incredible.
Everyone deserves a second chance. But in Brittain law does not work that way, most cons get marked for life, they have to report to authorities when they move, etc... so in essence the law does everything to put someone in his position down. Not being able to realize their financial potential is like being perpetually incarcerated. Some other nations see through these shortcommings of the british legal system and show mercy towards these individuals.
BUT THEY CAN AFFORD TO LOBBY AND HAVE LAWS WRITTEN JUST TO SUIT THEIR OWN CORRUPT PYRAMID SCAMS MAKING THEM LEGAL WHEN ITS AN ILLEGAL FRAUD SCALED UP TO BILLIONS IT OK, ITS ONLY NOT WHEN ITS A SINGLE INDIVIDUAL DOING THE SAME. BANKS LITERALLY EXIST BY DOING WHAT HE DID AND THEY DO IT WITH ALL THE MONEY THRU FORCED MONOPOLY!!!
when visual representations of a lie are shown in a convincing manner to sucker the victim more then the con man could be an astronaut. The heart often rules the brain as with this unfortunate Woman.
Some women are easily sucked in by wealth and charm and he knew this very well. Ladies if its too good to be true it usually is, don't be dazzled by materialistic things. It spoils it for the genuine men out there that have nothing to give but their good selves love and affection.
Especially how they the women feel intimidated by phony stories they do not quite understand - the woman lent him 26K pounds! So she has a loan agreement - its like TP. Send a bill to Trump, get in line to never get paid. Amazing how easy it is actually.
This man is clearly very highly intelligent, for him to work all these business deals out and con people just imagine if he put all that energy into running his own legitimate businesses he would be a multimillionaire no doubt ,instead of deceiving people and ending up in prison. Truly amazing How a person like this throws it all away when he could be right up there with the best.
I don't think he's Very inteligent, but he's Very convincent and sharming. People around this conman are gulieble and naive, only that. For 3 people he con are 10 than don't believe is his lies.
I am always amazed when people believe someone who says he is a spy or CIA. NO ONE, I emphasize, NO ONE will admit being a spy to an acquaintance or even a spouse. People will always believe what they need to hear. So heartbreaking.
As with all ongoing abuses of whatever kind, the perpetrator gets away with it because of a lack of information sharing with various agencies, overly-lenient sentencing, and in this case being impressed when someone is well-spoken and educated.
After my divorce in my early 50s, I took a spin on a matchmaking site. First match was with my ex-husband. Really. Then the military men started flowing in. Special ops, CIA, FBI...I have two sons in the military. Anyone who does work like these does not advertise it.
There is always a "cash flow problem". My former husband was conned by a series of "international businessmen" in the late 80s. In the end, it cost him his career, family and more. Fortunately, we both survived and life went on, but it was devastating.
In the west we see people getting rich/famous/successful overnight and we think that could happen to us and we can't miss an opportunity! Someone on the phone saying we've won the Australian lottery we never entered?!
My ex sociopath boyfriend wanted to borrow $10,000 and repay me $15,000 once he processed a “loan” from his 401K. I said absolutely NOT! That’s how this $#*+ starts. It started with $20 here and there that he would pay back and then after 1 year he went for the $10,000. Anytime a man asks a woman for money that he will “pay back later” RUN & never look back!
Unfortunately ☹️ I learned this a bit too late ....but now I'm over all my personal experiences of cons....I feel very much for the lady in this video .... Carolyn
It's come out recently that martin brunt the reporter in this doc actually fell in love with him. For real. He got too close to his story. He lost all focus.
Maybe I am missing something but if it's clear where he has obtained his wealth from, and how, why aren't the legal authorities recovering the money he has conned from people and returning it to them ? It seems to me the legal authorities are encouraging this type of crime because ultimately they get away with it. Crazy.
What's more sad is the wife left that businessman when he became a victim of fraud. I stopped believing in "through thick and thin, sickness and health" phrase a long time ago. Time and time it proves means nothing to fools who really don't love.
I feel sick to my stomach, how Carolyn Woods must be feeling. She’s an incredible person to have not let it finish her off, she’s got that elegance and spirit about her. The Swiss guy he took for 400k was very cool too, must be very rich.
They sniff out the kind and gentle folks before starting the con duh….. I just can't believe the lady didn't push to have SOME of her money returned from the seizure of his assents?
I can’t get over how he was initially able to continually charge on his father’s card without his father being aware for so long ... I check my cards constantly. Unless I’m not understanding/missing something about his original theft from his father ???
His dad must have had an amazing credit limit on his gold card. Jets, hotels... and what bank would give a boy a half a million pound mortgage? Some of these things just don't add up
Some ten years ago, a lot of businesses in Belgium gave free cars (Lamborgini, Maserati, ...) to a guy who pretended to be a Saoudi Prince. He went with his friends, who were the so called minders and body guards and tried to get things based on his fake identity. It worked very well for a while. The guy was a Belgian Moroccan of 20 or so. He showed how stupid people are, I thought he's a genius !
this guy will be out in 2yrs.. with all them millions he has hidden its worth the prison time.. a very clever man indeed. he will be out and free and be rich
@@mp015l2989 There is no way they would have fallen for that lie and that is the reason they exposed his request. I mean, who in the world would take them seriously if they themselves were conned?
When he read that bit out I literally tilted back the nerve and blatancy, it was almost funny. I'm sure he's conned many others and not only for money. It's as if Acklom is blind too something.
"a man of great presence and charisma" ... So grateful I did not have to be the victim of such a person and know that in my older years I now have the wisdom to see the potential shallowness and narcissism of such people.
Couldn’t they force him to pay restitution? Also, why would the prosecutors do a deal with him by only allowing him 5 counts out of 20? That’s madness. And, ineptitude.
Even the judicial systems in all these countries couldn't keep this guy out of the streets and kept slapping him on the wrist with supper short jail times. Unbelieveable
We urgently need a new British justice system the wrong people like Julian Assange getting locked up and the real villains go virtually free there is very little justice left in the courts .
@@paulukjames7799 Brits let in terrorists and have paid for it. The thing that bothers me is they do not learn from past mistakes. A life long criminal scam artists is exactly what he is. The only thing to stop him from scamming people is to lock him up. Unless he can work supervised during the day and then bring him back to his cell. That way he can pay back some of the money and also be held accountable for his actions.
I was conned some 35 years ago as a young soldier traveling to Germany for my first posting. I stood at exit of London Kings cross figuring how to get to Hendon for an overnight stay before catching a flight in the morning. A man approached me asking if I had change of a £20 note I opened my wallet to help him out. He got talking saying he was a army sergeant based in Germany invited me to a nearby snack shop for a chat. Inside sitting we got a coffee and he pulled out a pack of cards. Long story short he fleeced me of the £65 I had in my wallet I guess a lesson learned for a naive 17 year old out in the big wide world count myself luck compared to some of the poor victims on here!
I can not understand how anyone who knows nothing about one and give them that kind of money taking their story. He got serious problems. His job is a serious thief. His mind is constantly planning how to get over. His occupation and he is very intelligent doing it. Law enforcement need to keep him behind bars. Same things happen over and over.
Motto? "Trust but verify." I'd watched this before and I am watching it again, today. I agree that this should be mandatory viewing for many folks, to remind them about not everyone being as honest as would like. We tend to want to believe the best of others (maybe often simply because it helps keep our physiological stress levels down). That's a good thing.
This guy went to one of the best con schools on the world. A boarding school where student are programmed at the subconscious level on how to be a narcissistic, psychopathic, social-vampire.
not so, they are instilled with an attitude of 'service' and noblesse oblige...however this outlier had frontal-lobe damage and so his intelligence (and his 'id') had no retarding-force
Women have to get over themselves and this stupid "love" thing. Honestly, if a guy wanted me that badly, that quickly, and thought that I was "perfect" without even knowing me, I'd think he was a psycho and I'd run the other way. No one is going to flatter and charm me like that!
PTSD, here. I was scammed two years ago. Lost a lot, not everything, but I'm still dealing with the fallout. And the emotional toll will be ongoing, it changed my entire world-view in a way I'm not happy with. Be cautious; get it in writing; have it verified by an independent.
The more awareness the better, talking about it helps. My dad got scammed by a man who was a friend of our stockbrokers. He sold him land in the Bahamas that didn't exist when he went out there. The conman lived it up in Spain.
I had expected this to end with a long prison sentence and a suicide. But Mark knew that he would only get a slap on the wrist. Someone please explain why someone like this is allowed to devastate lives by being let out of prison so quickly? There seems to be little consequence to graft, fraud and cronyism in the British justice system.
The simple fact of the matter is that if someone has the mental capacity to make decisions for themselves, even unwise decisions, it makes this type of offence, legally, much more difficult to prosecute. Interestingly, in the online research I conducted after watching this documentary, Acklom was actually convicted of defrauding Carolyn of £300,000, rather than the amount of £750,000 she states in the documentary she lost to Acklom in total.
It truly is amazing how a very intelligent lady can be taken in by Acklom, however, she is a brave courageous women to articulate her experience with that fiend.
In a way she, too, was on the make. She was thrilled at the prospect of a bargain transaction and set her intelligence aside to accommodate its fruition. Just like the Swiss man who handed over a great pile of money on the basis of some phone conversations. I feel quite sorry for them both, but let's face it, one could as easily laugh at them. The duping of fools by swine is a classic comic motif. Tragicomic, should we say?
dixon pinfold Yes greed is a potent enticement but there is no getting away from Acklom being a ruthless psychopath. Personally I think his birth has a lot to do with his problem in that the trauma/ manipulation to get out of his mothers womb became part of his makeup throughout his life, it left an imprint on the subconscious mind and that which we are not conscious of will effect our behaviour. The fiend needs psychotherapy to dig it out.
@@terencehennegan1439 Thanks for your reply. Your idea about birth trauma is interesting, and reminded me that a correlation has been found between birth complications and schizophrenia. Its onset occurs a couple of decades later.

“It was a forceps and suction birth….” So was mine, and although I didn’t became an amoral con man, my mother would blame every minor health problem I had on the suction birth for years. There is a lot of evidence that our brains tend to prefer some causes of health problems over others (we prefer one time events over gradual or cumulative causes, we prefer unusual events as a cause over mundane ones, we prefer things that are done to us by someone else over things internal to us like our age, weight, smoking habit, etc)…and although this doesn’t exonerate suction births and I know little about them….they fit many of these criteria.
Yip! The thrill of the chase and the thrill of executing the biggest damn con! Jeez man! I get so excited! I mean....not cool man, why would someone probe how bright and persuasive they are by exhibiting such beautiful cons!

I read Carolyn’s book. Right from the start, she was footing the bill for EVERYTHING. This didn’t strike her as odd? Sadly, women in a certain age bracket, alone, comfortably off, seem to lose their heads completely when an attractive man pays them a compliment.
There's something missing here. Why would the teacher give a student, a minor, such a sum? Also, I wonder what kind of relationship they actually had. How did the parents not see the charges on their credit cards? Where were his parents when he was jet-setting around? Didn't they notice his absence? I believe, his parents may have created their own monster.
i think the spending only went on for so many months, not years. he wrought havoc and then it was his parents who had to make the choice to hand him into the police. they could have just left it - he never would have gone to jail. 'i was nearly 17' - crimes committed. 18; he was charged. justice is bureaucratic and takes time

I like the guy who says:" People call him a sociopath but I call him..." And continues to describe the definition of a sociopath
I guess it's because sociopath sometimes can be viewed as a 'disorder' some kind of disease, and he prefers to see him as just an evil, bad person
"Some people would say that he's a sociopath but i say that he's a heartless, wicked scoundrel who cares about nobody's feelings but his own." Same thing.

The former implies a mental illness, the latter implies he has personal responsibility for the things he has done wrong.

More or less the same but would have got to keep the spoils of his labors. These narcissistic idiots are all the same, they think they're smarter because they spool a yarn but inevitably their whole life crashes around them. This is why most of them keep mobile. There's more of these idiots out there than people realize and it's a good idea to be wary of charming people who come into your life from far away.
I don't think he would have been as driven, part of being a sociopath is not being able to achieve true happiness, so they instead chase status, thrills and danger.
He could not. It's too hard
Indeed @ Holidayin Germany.. Indeed.
I get amazed on how come a criminal can change his name so easily. It just helps him to continue his tracks in crime. He deluded everybody, and in a deal with the prosecutors, from 20 charges he plaided guilty in 5. Because he had served already some time, he got a very short time in jail. Incredible.
Everyone deserves a second chance. But in Brittain law does not work that way, most cons get marked for life, they have to report to authorities when they move, etc... so in essence the law does everything to put someone in his position down. Not being able to realize their financial potential is like being perpetually incarcerated. Some other nations see through these shortcommings of the british legal system and show mercy towards these individuals.

He'll barely serve two years in a cushy open prison. 5 years = 2.5 years to serve minus several months on a GPS tag with home curfew.
As with all ongoing abuses of whatever kind, the perpetrator gets away with it because of a lack of information sharing with various agencies, overly-lenient sentencing, and in this case being impressed when someone is well-spoken and educated.
He's a lightweight, the real pros are; Bankers, IMF, Central Banks, BIS & our leaders! 🙂

There is always a "cash flow problem". My former husband was conned by a series of "international businessmen" in the late 80s. In the end, it cost him his career, family and more. Fortunately, we both survived and life went on, but it was devastating.
People should learn from this but they won't only when it happens to them 🙊🙉🙈
In the west we see people getting rich/famous/successful overnight and we think that could happen to us and we can't miss an opportunity! Someone on the phone saying we've won the Australian lottery we never entered?!

My ex sociopath boyfriend wanted to borrow $10,000 and repay me $15,000 once he processed a “loan” from his 401K. I said absolutely NOT! That’s how this $#*+ starts.

Absolutely zero guilt, remorse, respect or shame. He's a psychopath and will continue on this trajectory until the day he dies.
Hopefully, someone will help assist him with an appointment with the devil himself.

Because he selling his story to sky and Sky will love It not a bad deal I believe
This is how psychopaths are. Walking Disturbia.
Maybe I am missing something but if it's clear where he has obtained his wealth from, and how, why aren't the legal authorities recovering the money he has conned from people and returning it to them ? It seems to me the legal authorities are encouraging this type of crime because ultimately they get away with it. Crazy.
Dougie, they spend it usually on luxury or to start the next con
One guess.Hard to recover money that's been spent.
What's more sad is the wife left that businessman when he became a victim of fraud. I stopped believing in "through thick and thin, sickness and health" phrase a long time ago. Time and time it proves means nothing to fools who really don't love.

I feel sick to my stomach, how Carolyn Woods must be feeling. She’s an incredible person to have not let it finish her off, she’s got that elegance and spirit about her. The Swiss guy he took for 400k was very cool too, must be very rich.
It’s amazing how many con artists don’t end up pissing off the wrong person, where a bullet or two unceremoniously ends their life of crime.
They sniff out the kind and gentle folks before starting the con duh….. I just can't believe the lady didn't push to have SOME of her money returned from the seizure of his assents?
She seems a bit dim.

Some ten years ago, a lot of businesses in Belgium gave free cars (Lamborgini, Maserati, ...) to a guy who pretended to be a Saoudi Prince. He went with his friends, who were the so called minders and body guards and tried to get things based on his fake identity. It worked very well for a while. The guy was a Belgian Moroccan of 20 or so. He showed how stupid people are, I thought he's a genius !

That is great.
It's the sociopathic charisma.
Don't feel too safe, everyone can be conned if it's the right con in the right moment. But vigilance is commendable, obviously
Charisma! That's the first narcissistic trait to look out for.
Couldn’t they force him to pay restitution? Also, why would the prosecutors do a deal with him by only allowing him 5 counts out of 20? That’s madness. And, ineptitude.

That way he can pay back some of the money and also be held accountable for his actions.

just my thoughts too. it must be awful to be jail, especially in SPAIN. he wasn't punished enough
I was conned some 35 years ago as a young soldier traveling to Germany for my first posting. I stood at exit of London Kings cross figuring how to get to Hendon for an overnight stay before catching a flight in the morning. A man approached me asking if I had change of a £20 note I opened my wallet to help him out. He got talking saying he was a army sergeant based in Germany invited me to a nearby snack shop for a chat. Inside sitting we got a coffee and he pulled out a pack of cards. Long story short he fleeced me of the £65 I had in my wallet I guess a lesson learned for a naive 17 year old out in the big wide world count myself luck compared to some of the poor victims on here!
Thanks for sharing. Yes, we’ve all be conned at some stage in our lives.
I can not understand how anyone who knows nothing about one and give them that kind of money taking their story. He got serious problems. His job is a serious thief. His mind is constantly planning how to get over. His occupation and he is very intelligent doing it. Law enforcement need to keep him behind bars. Same things happen over and over.
His mom aged well..
He looks a little bit like a rat crossed with a human. I sincerely hope the poor victims recover from this rodent. 🐀🐀🐀

Motto? "Trust but verify." I'd watched this before and I am watching it again, today. I agree that this should be mandatory viewing for many folks, to remind them about not everyone being as honest as would like. We tend to want to believe the best of others (maybe often simply because it helps keep our physiological stress levels down). That's a good thing.
This guy went to one of the best con schools on the world. A boarding school where student are programmed at the subconscious level on how to be a narcissistic, psychopathic, social-vampire.

Women have to get over themselves and this stupid "love" thing. Honestly, if a guy wanted me that badly, that quickly, and thought that I was "perfect" without even knowing me, I'd think he was a psycho and I'd run the other way. No one is going to flatter and charm me like that!
The moral of the story is greed by the conman and greed for more wealth by the recipients.
PTSD, here. I was scammed two years ago. Lost a lot, not everything, but I'm still dealing with the fallout. And the emotional toll will be ongoing, it changed my entire world-view in a way I'm not happy with. Be cautious; get it in writing; have it verified by an independent.
The more awareness the better, talking about it helps. My dad got scammed by a man who was a friend of our stockbrokers. He sold him land in the Bahamas that didn't exist when he went out there. The conman lived it up in Spain.
Same here. However, it changed my outlook on life in à way that I do like. I needed to become more worldly and savvy and suspicious.
@Emily Hinkley Well, some actually do. I fell into a diagnosed psychosis and am just now starting to feel 'normal' once again.
My own brother-in-law cost me several million dollars. It took me the better part of the last 7 years to make it back.
I had expected this to end with a long prison sentence and a suicide. But Mark knew that he would only get a slap on the wrist.
Someone please explain why someone like this is allowed to devastate lives by being let out of prison so quickly? There seems to be little consequence to graft, fraud and cronyism in the British justice system.
It is all over the world. He should be put away for life or have a hand chopped off and marked for life, so people get a warning.
The simple fact of the matter is that if someone has the mental capacity to make decisions for themselves, even unwise decisions, it makes this type of offence, legally, much more difficult to prosecute. Interestingly, in the online research I conducted after watching this documentary, Acklom was actually convicted of defrauding Carolyn of £300,000, rather than the amount of £750,000 she states in the documentary she lost to Acklom in total.
It truly is amazing how a very intelligent lady can be taken in by Acklom, however, she is a brave courageous women to articulate her experience with that fiend.
In a way she, too, was on the make. She was thrilled at the prospect of a bargain transaction and set her intelligence aside to accommodate its fruition. Just like the Swiss man who handed over a great pile of money on the basis of some phone conversations. I feel quite sorry for them both, but let's face it, one could as easily laugh at them. The duping of fools by swine is a classic comic motif. Tragicomic, should we say?
dixon pinfold Yes greed is a potent enticement but there is no getting away from Acklom being a ruthless psychopath.
Personally I think his birth has a lot to do with his problem in that the trauma/ manipulation to get out of his mothers womb became part of his makeup throughout his life, it left an imprint on the subconscious mind and that which we are not conscious of will effect our behaviour.
The fiend needs psychotherapy to dig it out.
@@terencehennegan1439 Thanks for your reply. Your idea about birth trauma is interesting, and reminded me that a correlation has been found between birth complications and schizophrenia. Its onset occurs a couple of decades later.

That's the (un) justice British system.
“It was a forceps and suction birth….” So was mine, and although I didn’t became an amoral con man, my mother would blame every minor health problem I had on the suction birth for years. There is a lot of evidence that our brains tend to prefer some causes of health problems over others (we prefer one time events over gradual or cumulative causes, we prefer unusual events as a cause over mundane ones, we prefer things that are done to us by someone else over things internal to us like our age, weight, smoking habit, etc)…and although this doesn’t exonerate suction births and I know little about them….they fit many of these criteria.
I am convinced beyond a shred of doubt that the so-called 'justice system' is broken beyond hope

I read Carolyn’s book. Right from the start, she was footing the bill for EVERYTHING. This didn’t strike her as odd? Sadly, women in a certain age bracket, alone, comfortably off, seem to lose their heads completely when an attractive man pays them a compliment.
There's something missing here. Why would the teacher give a student, a minor, such a sum? Also, I wonder what kind of relationship they actually had. How did the parents not see the charges on their credit cards? Where were his parents when he was jet-setting around? Didn't they notice his absence?
