Been scammed

On the phone with the bank now.

*sigh

People are ■■■■■■■■. This was some of the kids Christmas money.

Can’t believe some ■■■■■■■ people out there.

It wasn’t a lot but I’m worried they will take more. £29.85 was taken.

How were you scammed? Was it through your credit card?

The earliest you report the faster is the chances of getting it back.

So sorry you gotta deal with a scammer. Sadly, this is becoming more and more common these days.

I’m sorry. That’s so frustrating. I can’t imagine how stressful that would be with kids.

I fell for a phishing scam on Wednesday. :woman_facepalming:t2: Thankfully I used my credit card so it was easy enough to dispute and cancel.

Someone stole $50 from my debit card a few weeks ago and that was more of a hassle replacing that money and card.

Scams seem to be on the rise, at least in my neck of the woods.

Sorry that happened to you.

I’ve never fallen for a scam, but a tradesman ripped me off for atleast 3 grand.

Yea. And I googled them and it shows it’s a scam.
