    Police have now identified 10 possible victims of a couple arrested last week - accused of defrauding a person of more than one million dollars


    The 28-year-old man and 38-year-old woman are charged with using bogus cancer treatment bills to get money - over two years.

    Detective Senior Sergeant Shane Dye says they've identified three more potential victims - and four others have come forward after revelations of the pair's arrest.

    The couple are back in court on Monday, on multiple charges of obtaining by deception.
