Tim Colder Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Don't worry no personal /confidential information was exchanged, just a general request for advice. After 35 years in the civil service I am aware that information is confidential in all circumstances. We even have to get permission to take any other type of part-time employment or holiday in certain countries because of the official secrets act.

Probably worth reading from the start to understand how some got caught out. This firm had a different name and was trading normally for a while, and a number of us including me reported this on the forum. Sadly at some later point it went badly wrong. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grouse101 Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 As a quick update. I received a letter letting me know that Action Fraud and therefore presumably the police are doing absolutely nothing about this. They just let the debit/credit card companies deal with it and ultimately the cost gets passed back onto us via interest rates and account fees. So I suspect the person/persons behind this company may do this again. In fact, now I know you can just get away with it, I may change career... 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The powers that be in UK law enforcement seem to think this is a victimless crime just because the majority of purchases are credit card based and are covered by Section 75. As you say, the losses these companies make is added on to the consumer in one way or another and the individual concerned will no doubt try his hand again as he's effectively got away with it !

Moderators AY Mod Posted June 24, 2022 Moderators Share Posted June 24, 2022 These sorts wouldn't be able to line their pockets if people weren't suckers in chasing prices to the bottom. If it's too good to be true, blah blah. Just deal with recognised stockists. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
