Charles William Ingram (born 6 August 1963) is a British convicted fraudster and a former major in the British Army who gained fame for his appearance on the ITV television game show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Across two episodes recorded in September 2001, Ingram correctly answered 15 questions to win the show's maximum prize of £1 million, becoming the third recorded contestant ever to do so; however, he was denied the winnings due to suspicion of cheating and was subsequently arrested. Following a lengthy trial at Southwark Crown Court, Ingram was convicted in April 2003 on a single count of procuring the execution of a valuable security by deception. A few months later, the Army Board ordered him to resign his commission as a major. He was subsequently convicted in late 2003 of an unrelated offence involving insurance fraud.
