A conman created fake parking tickets using his home computer – and slapped them on 150 cars in just two hours. Christopher Povey, an unemployed dad-of-three, targeted cars on roads in Sale and Timperley and then photographed them. The tickets demanded motorists pay a £60 fine or £35 within 10 days and told them to send a cheque to a PO Box address. Four drivers fell for the scam and sent cheques, but police were alerted by suspicious residents and now Povey, 41, has been found guilty of fraud.
