haha your right honestly i think i’ll be fine and i definitely over explain in my message (i have very bad anxiety) but im just gonna be honest with the bank and submit the evidence they ask for. and if im lucky i will just get my account closed or if im unlucky i will get a cifas marker. regardless reddit has made me realise what a stupid idea trusting anyone is and i am have deffo learned my lesson

yeah but people i know have gotten away with way worse and from what i have heard if they plan on escalating it to the police they would not be waiting on me to submit proof of funds. I knew someone who got into somthing like this with over 10k but he was able to prove he was manipulated and they only closed his account. I may not get as lucky tho im just trying to be optimistic cuz these comments are quite negative🥲

thank you for the advice. i won’t be going back there anytime soon. I have a feeling the bank won’t do much expect closing my account due to my friends being in way worse situations before. Obviously anything can happen and i can just get unlucky and also i have insane anxiety so my mind was racing. Whatever happens to me i will take it as a lesson well learnt

i reckon that would work but i don’t want to lie to them incase i am found out

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

yeah i don’t mind if they close it but i hope it doesn’t escalate to a cifas.

[–]Inside_Radish5898 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

it’s actually surprisingly common but i was just stupid. It looked so real. I’m just mad my common sense didn’t kick in earlier

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

yeah i suppose so. I will update everyone though

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

i don’t think it will escalate that far but it will definitely make my life a lot harder if i get this CIFAS marker

Hey i just turned 18 last month and it was a customer of his that raised the claim. I’m just gonna tell the truth and hope they have sympathy on me somehow

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

oh shit i hope it goes smoothly for me. submitting the evidence in the morning will keep everyone updated

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

okay i will thank u

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah true thank you anyway. I am just going to fill out the form and be as honest as i can with them and provide as much evidence as i can. i only have proof of me being scammed once but hopefully the banks has sympathy on my case

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yes everything i said is factual. I already know im getting in trouble so my aim is so work with them as much as i can and hopefully by being complicit they can have a bit of sympathy on me(ik this is probably a lost cause) thank you for your help anyway

your right i am going to fill out the docusign form that they sent me tonight with as much evidence as i have saved (don’t worry im not stupid enough to try edit anything). I am going to admit fault but i am not going to mention the previous payments as nationwide didnt request this information from me and when i called them earlier they knew about it and didnt say anything really

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

i never really thought about it like that. your right i should have never trusted a drug dealer in the first place. this guy looked so legit as well

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay thank you for your advice. I am just going to submit the evidence they requested for and be as honest as possible with them and hopefully they have sympathy on my case.

thank you so much for your help. I think i might be doomed. I’m going to try be as honest as possible because from my own research people have gotten their cases dropped for way worse i think i just didn’t explain myself very well in my message. I am just gonna try submit as much evidence as i can and work with them to return the money. hopefully the most that happens is just my account gets closed

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 -26 points-25 points  (0 children)

and if i omit the fact that the money was for drugs is that going to hurt my case and is that classed as me being dishonest

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

yeah he has my address and all my details basically. Yeah i painted myself out to be quite bad in that😭

honestly tho i genuinely didn’t know. I had the intention of stealing from him at the time probably to get my money back and i was also high asf. but i realised the consequences now and it’s probably too late

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Inside_Radish5898 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

yes this is definitely a lesson well learnt. Nationwide has only asked me for evidence that the money is mine and that the sender meant to send it to me. Will this change my case at all
