      A BRISBANE woman fleeced Nigerian scam artists by stealing more than $30,000 from their internet car sales racket, a court was told yesterday. Sarah Jane Cochrane-Ramsey, 23, was employed by the Nigerians as an ''agent'' in March 2010 but was unaware they were scam artists, the Brisbane District Court heard. Her job was to provide an Australian bank account through which they could funnel payments received through their dodgy account on a popular car sales website. Cochrane-Ramsey was to keep 8 per cent of the money paid into her account and send the rest to the Nigerian scammers. But the court heard she kept the two payments she received, totalling $33,350.

      The car buyers who were ripped off reported the matter to police, who traced the account to Cochrane-Ramsey. Police inquiries found her employers were based in Nigeria but had been using a web server in New York to run their dodgy car sales listings. Cochrane-Ramsey pleaded guilty to aggravated fraud and was bailed until sentencing next month. Judge Terry Martin said she had a ''dishonest bent'' after hearing she had a history of stealing and property offences.
