Peter Foster, (born in Australia on 26 September 1962) has been described as the ultimate “international man of mischief”, a super salesman to some, conman to others, but undoubtedly a person who has lived a champagne lifestyle in the fast lane for over two decades, mixing with the rich and famous and earning himself the title in his native Australia as the “human headline” and in the British media as "Fleet Street's favourite Conman".
Said to be fiercely intelligent, charming, witty and entertaining, he has also been labelled as “the greatest conman of all time,” in Nigel Blundell’s 2004 book, “The Sting: True Stories of the World's Greatest Conmen”.
Foster was at the centre of the Cheriegate scandal that rocked the British Prime Minister, Tony Blair in 2002.
