Behrad Kazemi (pictured) and Raj Nasta, of West Sussex, ran an operation that cold-called victims under the guise of an asset management firm, advising them to invest their money in artworks.
Behrad Kazemi and Raj Nasta cold-called OAPs and convinced them to buy fakes. Scam claimed more than 125 victims - and did not know they had been dupedA pair of conmen who made millions selling fake Dali and Picasso paintings to vulnerable and elderly victims have been jailed following a six-year investigation.
Experts deduced that the pictures were fake, the signatures on them were not genuine, and the works were valued at £300 at most. Fakes of Pablo Picasso works were also used in the scam, though the works in question have not been named. Forensic examination of Kazemi's companies, Asset Consulting Services and Treasury Asset Group, as well as his own banking records, revealed he had pulled in over £2.6million.
And earlier this month at Lewes Crown Court, Kazemi, 35, of Barnfield Road, Crawley, was sentenced to four years and nine months' imprisonment; Nasta, 50, of McIndoe Road, East Grinstead, was sentenced to three years' behind bars.
