Yeah but I think you will find that the sentences are grouped by the type of offence. So 8 counts of fraud result in an 8-month sentence rather than 8 separate sentences of 1 month. So you could do this if you spread your crime out, a bit of violent robbery here, a pinch of grand theft auto there and a splash of online credit card fraud.
