Derek Alldred: The cunning but charming conman who duped 27 women out of over $2 million

Derek Alldred was sentenced to 24 years in prison for his crimes and will not be conning any more women in the near future
PUBLISHED FEB 3, 2019

Derek Alldred is not a name most will be familiar with, but for the 27 women whom he first charmed before often conning them out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, it's a name they will forever want to forget.

A serial conman and a master manipulator, he knew his way around women and could often effortlessly seduce them. Alldred's modus operandi was to target middle-aged lonely women and coax them into a false sense of security by painting himself as a qualified and committed man whom they could see marrying but before that he would be stealing their social security numbers, taking lines of credits in their names, and racking bills in the tens and hundreds of thousands. What he left in his wake were broken victims who were left with little choice but to pick up the pieces of their lives and who could do nothing but hope the authorities apprehended him before he got to another.
