A gas fitter has told of the 'unbelievably stressful' experience of losing £150,000 in life savings after investing in a holiday park scheme.
Christopher Lightfoot, from Lincoln, signed up with a company called Liv Lodges - which trades as LL Lincoln LTD - who he said painted a rosy picture of a new potential income stream.
Mr Lightfoot, 50, explained the company guaranteed a rental return of eight per cent (net) per annum and an 'exit plan' that would see him get his money back and more.
After wooing them with a visit to the park, he and his wife - who asked not to be named - decided to buy a holiday home for £149,990 in April 2021.
At first the investment lived up to its promise and they saw a monthly income of £1,000 profit come in.
