Career in tatters: Jonathan Burrows has resigned from his job with asset managers BlackRock A high flying city executive who dodged rail fares for five years has been branded as 'greedy' and 'selfish' after his identity was revealed. Jonathan Burrows has been unmasked as the mystery fare dodger of East Sussex who hit the news after settling a £43,000 bill for unpaid tickets over five years. The 44-year-old investment executive is thought to be the biggest fare dodger in history - avoiding the £21.50-a-day fee, despite owning two mansions worth £4million. He had hoped to avoid prosecution and publicity by reimbursing Southeastern trains just three days after being caught by a ticket inspector last November.
