A tearful couple pleaded with the Australian government to expel their son after the unfilial son owed A $47,000 (£27,000) in their name.
Jill Lewis (Jill Lewis) and Tony Lewis (Tony Lewis) say they don't want to see their son Russell (Russell), because he betrayed their trust, broke into their homes and stole their credit card information. He also "ransacked" all the bank accounts.
Mr. Lewis pleaded on the television show < A Curretn Affair > on Tuesday: "Please deport my son because I have had enough. I don't want to see him again. "
When Ms. Lewis recalled the couple finding their son Russell making them penniless and stealing a TV set, a car and a portable air conditioner at home, she really collapsed.
She also pleaded, "Please expel Russell, because I don't want to see him again."
The Lewis moved to Australia in 1985 with Russell, then 10, according to Nine News.
The couple had expected to retire, but now they had to borrow money to pay rent and take care of Russell's six-year-old daughter.
Russell was convicted of fraud and police found a gun in his house when he broke into his parents' house and emptied his bank account.
He was sentenced to 3.5 years in prison and held at (Long Bay) prison in long Bay, Sydney, where he will not be released until 2020.
The Lewis said they were forced to sell their homes and companies after their homes were stolen five years ago.
They said they were planning a holiday in the UK in 2013 and informed the federal bank (CBA) that their accounts would remain idle.
However, before they arrived in England, Russell broke into and robbed their home.
The Lewis didn't know they had been robbed by their son until they came back from their vacation when a bank teller informed them.
They say the federal bank initially accused Mr. Lewis and his son of complicity in orchestrating the scam.
Peter, executive general manager of digital business at federal bank? Steele (Pete Steel) told the Australian Daily Mail that they were sorry about the situation and that they had investigated and fully understood the situation.
"We are deeply sorry about the Lewis' situation, and we know that fraud cases are often complicated and very difficult for clients," he said.
"CBA has conducted extensive investigations and we will contact the Lewis couple and their representatives directly, fully understand their problems and pay them good faith payments to (goodwill payment).," he said.
