Title: Identity Fraud Post by: Dazzza on Tuesday, February 22, 2005, 20:48:33 Something the media is starting to relish and scare the living Patě out of the Sunday Mail readers over brekfast.
However I'm a little alarmed just how easy it is. In fact if I was to turn criminal this would undoubtably be my crime of choice as it's simple, hard to prove in court and offers very easy money. I'm quite shocked that for all of the adverts on TV and warnings all of the old loopholes are still left wide open. Anyone ever been done over themselves? Title: Identity Fraud Post by: DMR on Tuesday, February 22, 2005, 21:23:03 I have a fake ID, go on the me.
Never had to sue it though so I'll be damned if it works. More on topic, my ex-neighbour got done Daz, someone emptied his bank account and racked up an impressive credit card bill. They caught the bloke who did it I think, not sure where he ended up. Title: Identity Fraud Post by: Dazzza on Tuesday, February 22, 2005, 21:26:05 I met some American a few years back that fell for a Nigerian email scam.
The fool had sold everything he owned and went out celebrating before the cash was supposed to arrive. Title: Identity Fraud Post by: yeo on Tuesday, February 22, 2005, 21:28:55 Nope I had a credit card cloned ,they spent 1500 quid in India on it.Funny thing is it was a new card and I had only used in 2 places and knew exactly who must have skimmed it but Amex didnt seem at all interested in this.I didnt have to pay anything back though so its a victimless crime as far as Im concerned.

Insured to the nipples no doubt. Did you get to see what they bought? Title: Identity Fraud Post by: yeo on Tuesday, February 22, 2005, 23:17:07 Yes mostly gold jewelry and petrol.
Title: Identity Fraud Post by: Dazzza on Tuesday, February 22, 2005, 23:24:10 Not wanting to enter the racialist jungle here but Indians are fast approaching the Nigerians in the scam artists Premier League.
Title: Identity Fraud Post by: yeo on Tuesday, February 22, 2005, 23:29:01 Indeed it was cloned at the petrol station by the magic roundabout by them peskey injuns.

Title: Identity Fraud Post by: Turbo on Wednesday, February 23, 2005, 00:07:08 Yevoil_Red's post, seems very libelous (might as well delete our conversation as well)

Title: Identity Fraud Post by: yeo on Wednesday, February 23, 2005, 00:13:14 Hang on, unless Turbo is gay that was libelous :(

Title: Identity Fraud Post by: Turbo on Wednesday, February 23, 2005, 00:15:11 Ok i admit i probably have nothing to do with this and the chances of anything happening about it are slim. But i dont beleive to be libel it has to be false, just has to be unproven (i think.)

Title: Identity Fraud Post by: sonicyouth on Wednesday, February 23, 2005, 02:55:02 too late i already have!
Title: Identity Fraud Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Wednesday, February 23, 2005, 03:09:48 We've got Gary Stanley's uncle, Simon Pieman studying law and I know someone who once met Toadie from Neighbours so I think we could put together a very strong defence team that could easily fight any libel case so nothing to worry about.
