Police are investigating whether a British entrepreneur who mysteriously vanished in Bali could have faked his own death, amid fears he plummeted from a cliff edge.
Ryan Roth's belongings and a note to his ex girlfriend were found at the beauty spot near the Selonding Temple in Pecatu Village, Bali, on Monday morning.
A body is yet to be recovered from the scene despite extensive searches of the area and officials on the island are now exploring the possibility that Mr Roth, from Southampton, could still be alive.
The mystery over his disappearance deepened today after it emerged that police in Australia wanted to speak to a man over a fraud report dating back to 2008.
When asked about Mr Roth, a New South Wales police spokesman said: 'Investigators are yet to formally speak to the man who left the country.'
Meanwhile, a website claiming to uncover scams yields many results for Ryan Roth, who according to posts on the website also goes by the name 'Ryan Flynn' and is known for scamming people out of money in several countries as far flung as the United States, Australia and France.
