[2001] QB 488. The defendant fraudulently advised the claimant to invest a large sum of money in a particular way. The investment was a poor one, as it turned out, and the claimant lost a great deal. The claimant sued the defendant in the tort of deceit, and were able to recover not only the money they lost, but the money they would have gained had they invested the money better. This case emphasizes the longstanding principle that there is no test for 'remoteness' in deceit. All losses directly attributable to the deceit are recoverable.
