Connected reporting

Only direct reviewed connections are shown. Shared wording is weaker evidence than a supported case connection. A connection through a third article does not establish that two reports concern the same case.

Shared wording

Romance fraudster defrauded women of £80,000

Exact Peter Gray35/Tinder and unusual three-woman financial-deception account support bounded shared reported-person coverage; keep source amounts, borrowing and sentence scopes separate.
