A CONMAN posed as a gorgeous female model on the internet to trick male admirers into sending him gifts and money.
Texan Police said Justin Brown, 24, masqueraded as Californian Guess Jeans and Maxim swimwear model Bree Condon, 23, for two years.
In one of a string of fake online profiles on SeekingMillionaire.com, "the meeting place for wealthy and beautiful singles", Brown identified himself as "Bree - just looking for Mr. Right", with accompanying photos of the brunette cover girl.
He enticed rich suitors by sending them pictures of Bree's face photo-shopped onto nude photos of other women.

A SINGLE mum gave a 12-year-old boy a pair of sneakers to mark the 100th time they had slept together.
Now Angela Sullivan, of Middlesbrough in the UK, is facing a jail term after being found guilty of getting the boy drunk, seducing him and sleeping with him almost 200 times during a 10-month affair.
The Sun reports Sullivan admitted to 10 charges of causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity.
Sullivan told the Teesside Crown Court she sent her son to stay with his grandparents while she had sex with the boy in her own home.
She kept a diary about their affair, marking each sex session with a star - 191 of them.

A COUPLE were left red-faced during a late-night dash for a takeaway when they were pulled up by police for a random breath test wearing nothing but their undies.
Dee Cunningham, 32, and husband Mick were sprung at an RBT in Darwin after going on a Subway run on Sunday night.
"It was after 8pm and we quickly wanted to get something to eat," Ms Cunningham told the NT News.
"We had no intentions of getting out of the car, as it was pouring down rain and we only wanted to get something at a drive-through - no harm going in undies."
She said she had thought about going in the nude, but luckily changed her mind before getting into the car.

CLIP:
Sweet wrappers, hamburger boxes and chewing gum are the most common items dropped on the streets, at a huge cost to local councils.
The Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (EFRA) Committee want a new charge to be levied on products that produce the most litter.
The new levy is part of a long-awaited report on how Britain can turn around its "throwaway culture".
The committee recommend every council should be made to collect food waste separately, meaning a slop bucket in most homes, to reduce the amount of biodegradable waste going to landfill.

Earlier this month, a British man was arrested and reportedly banned from a local airport after joking on Twitter that he was going to blow the U.K.'s Robin Hood Airport Doncaster Sheffield "sky high."
After a snowstorm threatened to interfere with his travel plans, Paul Chambers, 26, took to Twitter to release his frustration, according to the U.K.'s The Independent.
"Robin Hood airport is closed. You've got a week and a bit to get your sh** together, otherwise I'm blowing the airport sky high!!," he reportedly wrote.
Chambers thought he was just being funny, but British authorities apparently took a different view. A week after posting the message, he was arrested under the Terrorism Act and detained for nearly seven hours.

A teenage mother has received a visit from the police after a photo of her baby son with a cigarette hanging from his mouth was posted online. Rebecca Davey, 18, was apparently reported by concerned friends who had seen the picture on Facebook.
It showed six-month-old Ollie posing with the unlit cigarette.
Essex police learned of the image on Saturday and traced the teenager's home address to Southend in Essex.
A spokesman said they had "no immediate concerns" for the boy's welfare after the visit, but confirmed the matter had been referred to social services.
The offending photo has since been removed from the site, but it was printed in The Sun.

CLIP:
A 42-year-old Taiwanese man with a history of high blood pressure has died of a stroke likely triggered by over-excitement from watching the blockbuster Avatar in 3D, a doctor says.
The man, identified only by his surname Kuo, started to feel unwell during the screening earlier this month in the northern city of Hsinchu and was taken to hospital.
Mr Kuo, who suffered from hypertension, was unconscious when he arrived at the Nan Men General Hospital and a scan showed that his brain was haemorrhaging, emergency room doctor Peng Chin-chih said today.
"It's likely that the over-excitement from watching the movie triggered his symptoms,'' the doctor said.
