A fish and chip shop owner has been jailed for trying to charge a customer for a whopping $10,000 for one meal.
Tim Brosnan, 45, a reformed alcoholic and the son of a former nun, was the owner of Tally Ho Fisherman's Wharf in Mount Waverley, Melbourne.
A customer became alerted to the fraud when they checked their bank statement and realised they had been charged $10,000 for a meal in August 2016.
On Friday, Brosnan was sentenced to an extra two years in prison - having committed the fish and chip fraud while on bail for an earlier charge of stealing from his boss.
