Hi I just got a letter from Ray saying his website has been compromised. I just checked my account and it has been cleaned out. I urge you to check your accounts ASAP
 
link to letter/ screen shot as nothing on my radar
 
no not in a while guess im ok as there should have been a email ????????

We used snail mail Shaun - too many people don't read emails and we wanted to be sure that everyone who may be at risk got the message.
 
Might be my mistake. I just got Rays letter and was on high alert. Checked the bank and turns out I am just poor. I was looking at the wrong column. Bad news I just cancelled my cards lol

Sorry to get anyone excited. On phone to bank lady she is ****ing herself.
 
guess someone wasnt happy with the Easter sales/ didnt get a boiler :D

Jesus H Christ, Paul, you've taken 10 years off my life!
 
On further investigation it turns out the other half has been spending money like water though! I have been earning quite well recently. I assumed I was quite well off. I better go find the wife purse and a pair of scissors :(
 
Remember waking up one Sunday morning and getting in a tale spin cos the wallet wasn`t on the coffee table where it should of been, cancelled all the cards then put my jeans on and found it! lol
 
I got scammed earlier this year I'm struggling to come to terms with my financial loss and trying to keep the situation under control but the bank don't seem to concerned as they will restore any fraudulent payments found after they have proved that they are fraud. Mean time Ive lost 2 teeth and all my hair with worry and stress. I really hope they give me my twenty five pound back

dont forget about the pence all mounts up
 
Some twa@ cloned mine about a month ago, the card has never been in a card machine. Bank refunded the money , but I couldnt get over how angry I felt .
 
Don`t forget that the postman delivers to you on a Wednesday Shaun. :smilewinkgrin:

too true and at 3pm as well lol

i've had it twice on my cards, and one attempt at identity fraud. I now have a password on my credit file with the credit reference agencies, so that no-one can credit check me without the password, so noone can open credit facilities in my name. It does slow down certain transactions, but its worth it for the greater peace of mind.
 
I think this is Rays way of getting money back from the fire sale !!!
 
Ray when did this happen how far back do we need to check for dodgey payments

We can't be certain Alex so we are assuming the worst. Although we have no evidence of old transactions, I would be inclined to go back a few months at least.

Its good practice anyway - this is getting regrettably commonplace these days.

How do you get a password against your credit file?
 
We've had one of our cards stopped by Santander after someone tried to nick ÂŁ6,300 from our account in one card transaction on a card used on the site. Ray we had your letter this morning in the post about a week after the attempted theft in this case.

Ray this may be of use, this is the second card we've had fraud on within a month and I *think* both stopped cards were both used on your website. In fact I'm sure they were. The one before this was stopped at the end of February so I would assume they have got information going back to at least then.

On the first occasion ÂŁ12k was taken from our account before we clocked it but we got it all back within 72 hours thanks to Santander. They now phone me up every time a transaction goes through online lol.

At least we've found why this is happening so for that thanks for the letter Ray.

Hi guys. I'm trying to identify a toilet model before ordering a seat for a customer. I went to what used to be a Roca stockist (they no longer are) and one of the guys there reckoned it might be "The Gap". I went to the new stockist and the guy there disagreed it was "The Gap" and that he'd...
