For fraud by false representation the maximum sentence is 10 years imprisonment and the maximum sentence for theft is 7 years. There are several sentencing considerations which will depend on your particular case e.g. the total value obtained, planning undertaken, abuse of a position of trust, vulnerable victim(s) etc. Whether your previous convictions are for similar offences will also make a longer sentence more likely. Similarly, an Early Guilty Plea and no (or fewer) aggravating factors will mean a lower starting point.
