A total of 175,000 was withdrawn in countries including Australia, Canada and the Philippines. The scam is said to have hit every house in the village of Houghton on the Hill, Leics population 1,500.

Garage owner Jim Funnell, 51, said: There s hardly a household that hasn t been affected. The pub landlord says he ll have to offer credit as no one has any money left.

Raik ran up a debt with a loan shark linked to guerilla group the Tamil Tigers in his native Sri Lanka, Leicester Crown Court heard.

He told police he was given the cloning gear and ordered to pay off what he owed and more while working at the village garage.

JUST for LAUGHS..


He claimed he became involved in the fraud after running up a 3,000 debt with a loan shark connected to Sri-Lankan guerrilla warfare group the Tamil Tigers, who had threatened him when he struggled to make payments following the birth of his daughter in 2007.

I live in Leicestershire. People are laughing at me asking what Sri Lankans are doing as they all know I am from SL.

I have to explain the difference between me and the peelamists all the time.

Some even call me (joke) saying the little tiger
