Watch the full story of the cunning fraudster who posed as an MI6 agent to con his ex-girlfriend out of £800,000.
Conman: The Life and Crimes of Mark Acklom features the first TV interview with Diana Acklom, his mother. In it she has an extraordinary theory for her son’s prolific crimes.
Acklom has lodged an appeal against his jail sentence for duping victim Carolyn Woods in a romance scam.
The documentary was made by Sky's crime correspondent Martin Brunt.

I scare myself with these stories to remind myself of how close I came to being conned by someone years ago. The money doesn’t compare but a working class person who was working for myself at the time, had I not considered the unflattering possibility that someone I’d done contractual work before might be setting me up for a con, I likely would have found myself in serious financial and legal trouble. Scary stuff.

I was a bit confused as to the outcome of his conviction. He was sentenced to 5 years of jail, but I didn’t hear any mention of a restitution judgement, ordering him to repay her. I’m in the US, so maybe it’s different in Britain. Perhaps she would need to file a separate civil case to receive compensation? Here it would be included in the criminal case.

The sentences never repay the conned person. The state should pay the victims back, then the state should put the con artist to work doing all the shittest jobs possible until they’ve repaid the state. A few years in prison does nothing to cure them or put the victims life back together.

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.

...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......!!!

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 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.

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.

My farther was a con man, back in the 70s, He had a few visits to prison. I was at school then, The head master took great pleasure in calling me out in assembly, saying, See your farther in prison again, I could never get credit and was even ashamed to tell people my name when asked, Even when I went for a job after leaving school people would turn me down because of my fathers name. I grew up saving for anything I wanted to buy, The only loan I ever got was my Mortgage. So there is a knock on affect to the con Peoples direct family. He also drove my mother mental by lying and having affairs.

I used to work for the telephone company. We came across a young man who found he could whistle his way to free long distance calls. Company security wanted to prosecute him for fraud. Our president hired him instead.

"He stopped taking her calls" That doesn't sound like "slowly began distancing himself" from her.

The moral of the story is greed by the conman and greed for more wealth by the recipients.

His jail sentence is pathetic. He should be locked up for life. That is the only way the public can be protected.

His mother didn’t seem to be too motherly to him. Perhaps she’s the root of it all
