West Ham's Andy Carroll and Sam Allardyce 'scammed by Christmas hamper fraudster'
The fraudster allegedly took £35k from players at the Premier League club and Championship side Norwich City West Ham manager Sam Allardyce and striker Andy Carroll have allegedly been stung in a £35,000 Christmas hamper scam. A fraudster apparently arrived at the club’s training ground promising cut-price Fortnum & Mason hampers and Harrods champers. The pair paid £11,000 but the conman did not deliver to them, according to The Sun. The crook then apparently performed the same swindle at Championship team Norwich City — and conned players out of £5,000. A source said: “He was offering top quality champagnes and hampers from Harrods and Fortnum & Mason at ridiculously cheap prices. “Andy Carroll thought he was getting a great deal. Apparently he handed over £8,000. “The conman took more than £30,000 from players and staff." The source added that Norwich players were also targeted at their training ground in the run-up to Christmas. West Ham officials reported the fraud to police on Christmas Eve after the man struck at the club’s training ground in Chadwell Heath, Essex, on December 12. Just goes to show that even players and managers on thousands a week still like to pick up a bargain if they can......

Footballers need to save every penny they can due to such low incomes.
