Credit Card Fraud?

How is it possible with SecurePay?

Even if that Essex guy's name is real, probably he himself is not directly involved with the actual criminals. Just working as a postbox for 10 pounds, and would deny knowing anybody. Could be genuinely unaware as well. I would send a Nguyen to another Nguyen to say 'sorry they sent my pack to you can I have it back' - clean and easy, though one may lose the merchandise every now and then.

Quite possible I guess. However, the person also bought an insurance product (what type I do not know). Surely that should be traceable via car reg or name etc...

I will get my money back regardless from Swedbank... I am just doing this out of pure and utter spite and doggedness smile.gif

If I could (unlikely) find out the person responsible then I would do everything in my power to ensure that they get nailed for it.

Does your credit card have an RFID chip in it? I think Swedbank uses them, if so then it is possible for scammers to access all your card details without ever having physical ... (show full quote)

That only applies to US cards, where the magnetic strip info is available through RFID.
European cards are based on EMV (chip), and such cards cannot be cloned that easily, neither physically nor through RFID.

Like most things, criminals usually find a way.
