Vic: Harris to help police catch other fraudsters
19 Dec 2008 5:29 PM
The woman dubbed the `catch me if you can' thief will help authorities catch other fraudsters .. by revealing her trade secrets in a police training video.
JODY HARRIS lived the life of luxury over a four-month period in 2006 .. dressing in Louis Vuitton clothes .. wearing expensive jewellery and taking holidays.
She used fake identities and stolen bank cards from 15 victims to dishonestly obtain almost 150 thousand dollars.
HARRIS was jailed today for five years and nine months in the Victorian County Court.
But in an effort to demonstrate her remorse .. HARRIS has effectively switched sides .. now helping police to catch other fraudsters.
But she's made it clear she won't be informing on other prisoners.
