Leave to appeal refused because the sentencing judge’s choice of starting points, application of plea discounts and statutory enhancement, and imposition of a partly consecutive overall sentence were within the proper ambit of judicial discretion given aggravating features (recruitment from Mainland to commit offences, elder victims, cross-border element, HK$80,000 loss and prevalence of the scam) and therefore not manifestly excessive.
