Footballer fined for toilet seat fraud
By Simon Collins
Published on 23 January 2007

In gaming we are used to the problems of people trying to steal from us – fraud activity is always attempted on online gaming sites from bonus abuse through to using stolen cards and money laundering but I was in a state of shock when I read this story about a massively wealthy player a footie star, with all that money, can you believe they would be silly enough to half inch a toilet seat.

The Guardian recently reported that Portsmouth full-back Glen Johnson stunned onlookers in B&Q Dartford, when he was caught trying to steal bathroom fittings.
 
Despite reportedly earning £30,000 a week, Johnson - currently on loan from Chelsea - was spotted by a security guard putting a toilet seat into a box with a cheaper price tag. Aided by Millwall striker Ben May, he also hid a set of taps underneath a sink at the checkout to avoid paying for them. Both were handed £80 on the spot fines by police.
