Just prevented being scammed out of £284 via an internet transaction at Wickes in Watford - dirty scamming bastards !
Well done Smudger. The bastards want to rob anyone they can, rich or poor. They just need to catch someone at the wrong time. It seems they are beyond the law. The wonders of modern technology.

Normally I have to authorise any such payments - fuke knows how they get round the security! :mad: Luckily I spotted it and it’s now passed onto the fraud department- I now have to go through the rigmarole of changing all my payments set up on my debit card
 
Electronic transactions would be secure, we were told.
But all they are is more convenient. Partly for us, but mostly for the companies that get rich for just "looking after" our money.

Bad luck @Smudger603 sadly it's likely to happen to all of us sooner or later.
