"He's incapable of sympathy": Victim of 'Seduced by Evil' conman Derek Alldred reveals how she was scammed out of $325,000

Linda Dyas thought she was in a relationship with Richard Peterson, till the truth was revealed and it turned out she was one among the many women conned by Derek Alldred
PUBLISHED FEB 8, 2019

Derek Alldred could have been anything, his victims say. He was good-looking, charming, charismatic, and had a way with words. All he needed to do was put in the effort. Alldred did put in the effort, but he put it into his elaborate scams wherein he targeted middle-aged women who were divorced or going through tumultuous periods in their lives, pretend he was the man of their dreams, and then rob them blind.

His blueprint worked out pretty well for him too, and his years as a conman saw him plunder over $2.1 million from 27 different women in various states across the US. 

But like most conmen, he would get a little too greedy for his own good. Unbeknownst to Alldred, his victims were in constant touch with one another and hatching a plan to take him down. He had been caught on numerous previous occasions but got out on technicalities. This time, they said, he would not be getting off so easy.
