Thanx Paul, but you beat me to it. I've just found out i've been the victim of identify theft.
On sunday night, I drew some money out, and noticed that there was a grey addon over the hole. I didn't think anything of it, and thought it was just something to help stop people swiping your card when you distracted. Anyways, monday night, I saw the bit on ITV news about it. I went to the bank today, and £400 was taken out of my account, with an additional £32 from a Point-Of-Sale (IE shop terminal).
All I had to do was fill out a standard bank form, and take it to the police who fills out another one, and I took it back. It has gone back to Natwest's fraud department, and I should back within 6 weeks. Either i'll get my money back or I will be reported back to police for a fraudulent application
It is a bit of a joke, because I was talking to the copper and I said: "If you check the CCTV for the petrol station (where the POS was done), you should get a picture of him". He said, it is not a criminal matter until the bank says so. He said as its only a small amount of money, they'd rather just pay out and let them get away with it, as it is much less hassle for them.
I'm just hoping that the only got me once, as it is possible they took more money out that today.
F***ers
I'm far from rich, but luckily, I still have money left, and caught it quick. I really feel for those who don't notice so quickly, and lose much more. Even if Natwest do give me my money back, it will still be 6 weeks... For some people that wait could be much worse.
EDIT: Im from East London. Chingford to be precise. Anyone from around here needs to check their back account ASAP. It was just a small grey plastic box that was over the hole with a slit for the card. Apparently according to ITV news they also use a black strip box, to monitor the pin # you enter, so be aware for that too.
