Corey Casagrande's partner Jemma Connor was checked and social media posts 'suggested she had been spending large amounts of money and living a lavish lifestyle'.

A fraudulent finance worker who stole tens of thousands of pounds from the estates of dead customers was rumbled after his girlfriend posted pictures of their ‘lavish lifestyle’ on social media. Corey Casagrande took £75,000 to fund his gambling addiction as well as paying for luxury holidays and designer shoes. Casagrande worked as a team leader at Target Financial Services in Newport, Wales, providing services to big names including the BBC, Barclays, and Credit Suisse.

Casagrande was initially interviewed during the investigation, but he failed to turn up for a disciplinary hearing and was subsequently dismissed. The police were alerted and in November 2022 Casagrande was interviewed under caution. He gave a prepared statement in which he admitted being involved in the fraudulent transfer of monies to third-party accounts and said the ‘bulk’ of the money was then sent on to him.
