‘I know that to do this to the best of my ability I need to make sure that I am on a constant journey of growth myself so that I can bring the best value and share my experience and thoughts wisely.’

She describes herself on social media as an entrepreneur who now works in travel and trade and ‘turns passions into pay cheques’. 

Holmes Cameron posted numerous marketing blurbs on her Instagram account alongside stunning pictures.

One read: ‘Imagine an opportunity that could give you… the freedom to work around your current lifestyle and children.’

Another said: ‘Uncapped income down to your genuine effort… multiple pay days a month… are you looking for change, fed up of the same old, feeling a little bit stuck?’ 

It comes as well-placed insiders told MailOnline the type of fraud she is accused of – aggravated fraud – carries a prison sentence of up to six years in Spain and the second charge comes with a maximum jail sentence of two years.

One said: ‘She’s probably looking at five to eight years if convicted of both crimes. That’s likely to be the sort of sentence prosecutors will be seeking.’

The investigating judge who charged Laura, under her maiden surname rather than her married name of Joyce, accused her in a six-page written ruling of ‘leading the profit-motivated organised gang’ with her brother Marc Cameron Grimstead through a Spanish company called Elite Project Marketing SL.

Palma-based Maria Perez Ruiz also accused the pair of hiring accomplices paid on commission to get British tourists on the holiday island to put in false food poisoning claims.

Detectives were said at the time of their arrests to have estimated the losses of the hotel groups whose fraud claims sparked a police crackdown dubbed Operation Claims at around £9.5million.

MailOnline understands the final figure hoteliers and a state prosecutor will demand as compensation has not yet been finalised.

The investigating judge made it clear in the ruling made public on Wednesday the payouts obtained in the UK from the alleged fraud in 2016 and 2017 ‘notably exceeded’ £176,000.

Prosecutors are expected to be invited to submit their indictments by the end of next month.

Highly-respected Majorca based lawyer Jaime Campaner is representing the island’s hotel federation, which launched its own legal action running separately to the state prosecutor’s as part of the same criminal case.

Holmes Cameron’s lawyer is experienced Gabriel Llado, who said after his client appeared in court in May 2018 in a closed hearing that she had admitted to passing on the names and phone numbers of holidaymakers for payment but insisted it was part of a pure market research exercise.

He also insisted neither the alleged gang leaders or the so-called ‘claims farmers’ used to gather data of tourists Holmes Cameron passed on to others in the UK, encouraged the holidaymakers to get chemist’s receipts so they could make fake food poisoning claims as police and hoteliers’ representatives have claimed.

A source close to the case said: ‘A fraud conviction would result in a fine as well as a prison sentence.

‘Prosecutors will obviously also be seeking compensation for the amount they say has been defrauded.

‘The final figure may not end up being included in indictments but it will be made public at trial.’

The other six Brits charged have been named as Ryan Bridge; Simon Robert Flanagan; Tegan Jewel Summerlee; Susan Amanda Lyle; Nicola Marie Sanderson; and Peter Carl Murphy.

Bridge, previously referred to as the sole director of UK holiday claims, has been described as ‘one of the people tasked in England with processing the false claims’.

The other five Brits have been described as people paid on commission ‘hired by the two siblings to go to different hotels and get tourists’ personal details including details that would enable the consumption of meals in hotels to be linked to supposed food poisoning.’

The case against four other Brits who had been identified as part of the investigation has been provisionally archived – but only because their whereabouts is unknown and they have not been formally questioned.

Former Magaluf bar owner Laura, who spends most of her time in the UK now although it is thought she has to sign on at a court in Palma every few weeks as part of her conditional release conditions, was arrested at a luxury villa in upmarket Bendinat near the glamorous Majorcan port of Puerto Portals.

After she was held, it emerged her bar Playhouse had been identified as the venue where a British tourist was filmed performing sex acts on 24 men for a cheap drink in the summer of 2014.

The fallout from the infamous video sparked a crackdown on bar crawls in Magaluf after regional governors described the ‘outrageous’ sex scenes as giving the area and women ‘a terrible image’ and promised to ‘stop it whichever way’ they could.

Holmes Cameron, who was not at her bar when the incident occurred, shut Playhouse down soon after.

The British government announced new measures to clamp down on fake holiday sickness claims as a result of scandals like the Majorca fake food poisoning scam.

The same year of the Majorca arrests, Benidorm hotel association HOSBEC estimated British guests’ were costing Spanish hotels around £55million in bogus food poisoning claims.

Some reports at the time even claimed Brits were facing a holiday ban in some all-inclusive Costa hotels.

Many fraudsters were caught out after private detectives hired by hotels affected trawled their social media and discovered they had been posting photos of themselves eating and drinking when they later claimed to insurers they had been in bed with diarrhoea.

One family who claimed their holiday was ruined by food poisoning were jailed in February 2021 after Facebook photos revealed them enjoying the waterslide and bar throughout the trip. 

Christopher Byng, 38, Barbara Byng, 64, Linda Lane, 36, and Anthony Byng, 66, submitted false gastric illness claims against Jet2holidays following an all-inclusive trip to the Canary Islands in November 2016.

Christopher, Barbara and Anthony Byng were all jailed for four months. Lane received a suspended sentence.
