Wayne and his wife Nicky have been victims of a very serious fraud that has had long lasting effects. Wayne was someone who maintained he would never be conned – but despite the diligence and hard work, he was completely conned by a very astute conman. Wayne has declared to do his utmost to ensure other people do not go through the same experiences and pain him and his wife have had to go through. His interests include sport and education for disadvantaged groups, in the areas of numeracy and literacy. Recently, he has become an avid reader, currently the book he is reading is The People Hacker by Jenny Radcliffe.
