Kidderminster+ surrounding areas.

have just seen a tv programme about credit card fraud,i will only use the machines inside banks & stores these days,you need to be very carefull indeed as these organised gangs take to the high streets atm machines to rob you of your hard earned money!.

they seem to be from a well organised family gang and although the gang on tv tonight were centred around london they do operate throughout the country.

just beware where you use your card this bank holiday in ATM machines!.

Couple of years ago my card was scammed for almost £5k.....fortunately the company noticed the obscenely huge purchases following on from a small T-mobile top up and rang me and I didn't lose out....the only place I could think of where it could have been cloned was in a budget hotel in Manchester - I make sure now my credit card isn't taken out of my sight, but even that's not foolproof

I had my card cloned but fortunately my bank prevented the transactions from going through. It happened around christmas a few years ago and whilst I was making purchases online in the UK, they were trying to buy things in Canada!

I'm pretty certain it was cloned in one specific petrol station which I now avoid like the plague.

It all goes to show you dont put your pride and joy in any hole without checking it out fully or you might not get it back again!!!!

Never use my credit card to withdraw cash, and if they stole my debit card they'd be very disappointed at the wasted effort!! Did have someone attempt to clone my credit card once - bank cottoned on to it really quick though fortunately as it was one of the rare times I had credit
