The same guy is also being charged with fraud in Singapore. From the Straits Times, a local newspaper.

In March, Charlton - who was then in Singapore - had made calls from his mobile phone to a Mr Mirko Prskalo in Australia.

He allegedly duped the 74-year-old into believing that his nephew and family were in urgent need of funds in Singapore.

He is alleged to have induced Mr Prskalo to remit a total of A$17,145 (S$21,800) on four occasions via Western Union, a financial services company.
