Wiltshire Police began investigating Kingsley in 2019 when the force received a report that she had fraudulently used the bank details of her mother’s friend to pay for a stay at Cromhall Farm near Chippenham.
Other forces then notified Wiltshire Police of concurrent investigations into Kingsley which included “significant” cases of romance fraud that dated back to 2016.
Detectives found that she had defrauded a man out of thousands of pounds through a relationship that began in January 2016.
When it broke down two years later, Kingsley began conning another man, who she also told she was due to inherit a large sum of money.
As a result, he assisted her with significant deposits on a Land Rover and a Porsche, as well as expensive hotel stays, which led to debts in his name.
She began two further brief relationships in autumn 2019, where she again repeatedly used the victims’ personal and company bank cards to make purchases without their knowledge.
Police also found that she committed theft and fraud against numerous other victims – including solicitor’s firms, lawyers and a bank – by falsifying documents and letters.
