It is claimed he conned two former lovers and one of their parents by taking out credit cards, bank accounts and loans worth a total of £300,000 in their names, after gaining his victims' trust by telling them he worked for MI6.
Detective Constable Suzanne Raftery said: "It is clear that McKenzie has very little conscience and he has left his victims both emotionally and financially devastated.
"The fact he had the audacity to defraud his two partners who believed they were in a loving relationship with him, illustrates the disdain that he has for his victims and their feelings."
Also featured in the list of alleged fraudsters is bogus Bollywood film producer Sandeep Arora, 42, from Beckton, who allegedly claimed £4.5 million in VAT and Film Tax rebates for movies that either did not exist or with which he had no involvement.

Arora, who is known as Karan Arora in Bollywood circles, is currently believed to be in India.
Self-styled "professor" Alexia Thomas, 43, is also wanted, for selling fake immigration documents that cost around £300 each, but were issued by organisations that did not exist.
The Nigerian described herself as "Her Knowledgeable" on company literature, and used a string of aliases including Elizabeth or Lizzy with a variety of surnames.
Her last known address was in Camden, but she has lived in various parts of the capital.
Bayo Lawrence Anoworin, 41, from Lagos, Nigeria, is also wanted, over an alleged scam that stole more than £12 million from NHS Trusts in the UK and Guernsey between January 2011 and July 2012.
He uses a string of fake identities, and is accused of fraud offences and money laundering linked to a gang that targeted the trusts.
The alleged fraudsters' details have been released ahead of annual crime figures due to be made public by the Office for National Statistics on Thursday, which will include a full year of fraud and cybercrime for the first time.Anoworin, who has connections to Thamesmead, and Chatham in Kent, was arrested in Abbey Wood, in November 2012, but fled when he was released on bail.
Preliminary figures released in October 2015 found that there had been 5.1 million incidents of fraud in England and Wales in the previous year, affecting an estimated one in 12 adults and making it the most common form of crime.
Donald Toon, director of the NCA's Economic Crime Command, said: "The annual losses to the UK from fraud are estimated to be more than £190 billion. Behind this headline figure lie the actions of criminals like the wanted fraudsters highlighted in this appeal, who have caused distress and loss to people and businesses up and down the country.
"Law enforcement cannot tackle this problem alone. It is only by working together, individuals, law enforcement, Government and the private sector that we can protect the UK against fraud.
"It is important that anyone able to provide information on the ten fraudsters we are highlighting today takes the opportunity to pass that information to law enforcement to help bring them to justice."
