Summary

Two brothers, Patrick and Michael Stokes, pulled off a massive online car scam, swindling hundreds of victims out of hundreds of thousands of pounds by using unwitting “money mules” to launder stolen cash. Now, after being sentenced to two and a half years each, they’re still paying the price — Patrick ordered to repay nearly £97,000, Michael £1,347 — as police work to return stolen funds and ensure justice reaches the victims.
