A catfish conman who used dating apps to trick women into sex and con them out of money has been jailed again. 

Amir Tofangsazan, 36, used images of male models on his dating profiles while claiming to be a barrister, surgeon or a property tycoon. 

After finding victims on Tinder, Bumble and Plenty of Fish he told some victims he fantasised about watching them have sex with other men, then turned up himself pretending to be the second man.

He also tricked them into lending him cash, which he never paid back. 

After spending most of his life behind bars between 2015 and 2024, Tofangsazan was released from prison in January. 

But by April he was offending again by attending a speed dating event in Guildford. 

On Thursday (August 8) Tofangsazan, of Sidney Road, Brixton, was jailed for 10 months. 

The fraudster, who previously lived in Barnet, was originally sentenced to seven years and nine months in prison in May 2015 for 15 counts of fraud but he was then moved to an open prison in 2018 where he had access to a mobile phone which he used to con even more victims. 

When he was caught he was then sentenced to another three years and was made the subject of a Criminal Bevahour Order (CBO) which prohibited access online dating services for ten years and owning a phone without telling police. 

He was then released from prison early and started scamming again. After being caught, he was then sentenced to another three years in 2021. 

On Thursday (August 8, 2024) Tofangsazan was jailed again. 

Croydon Crown Court heard that he was released from prison in January this year but by April he was arrested again after he had attended a speed dating event at an All Bar One in Guildford in breach of his CBO. 

When he was arrested police found he was in possession of two mobile phones, one of which hadn’t been registered with police. 

Recorder James Lofthouse told Tofangsazan: “You are not a stupid man, that is plain. You were aware of the terms of your Criminal Behaviour Order and you broke it.” 

He added: “The use of a speed dating service shows a targeting of the type of person this order is designed to protect.” 

Defending, Abigail Bright told the judge that Tofangsazan is living in a council property that will only be held open to him for three months and said it would be in the public interest for her client to return to stable accommodation. 

But Recorder Lofthouse said only an immediate custodial sentence would be appropriate in this case. 

He sentenced Tofangsazan to 10 months in custody.
