The first victims of convicted serial fraudster Samantha Cookes have spoken about how they believed they had “won the lotto” when she came forward offering to be a surrogate for their baby after years of failed attempts to conceive or adopt a child.
English couple Katie and Lee have said they paid up to £5,000 (€5,900) to Samantha Cookes in 2011 before they realised she was lying about being a surrogate mother for their child.
