Jailed loan shark claims he was cheaper than Wonga
Thomas Kiely and his wife Caroline Lewis - from Monsall in Manchester - have been jailed. He was running an illegal money lending racket, while she was fraudulently claiming £60,000 in benefits at the same time. He had the cheek to claim that he was only offering a service to people who needed the cash.
And he is the latest in a long line of loan sharks to prey on the most vulnerable people.
