Builder Sent to Prison for Scamming Homeowners Out of £75,000: A Wirral man, Richard Williams, has been jailed for defrauding sixteen homeowners of over £75,000. Williams, aged 53, took upfront payments for building projects but left most jobs unfinished, often delivering low-quality work. One victim, Les Roberts, lost £20,000 on a loft conversion that was never completed. The group launched a GoFundMe to recover funds, but the prison sentence offers little solace as homes remain damaged and finances strained. Council leaders warn of jail time for rogue builders and urge victims to report shady operators immediately.
