I consider myself an intelligent woman but..
today something happened to make me realise everybody is vulnerable.
I was the victim of a scam artist on the telephone. I was lured into thinking there was a virus problem with my computer and after gaining access to my bank account I lost over £900.
Thankfully, most gratefully and forever in debt will I be to the bank we were refunded our money.
I will not go into all the details, mainly because I am so very, very embarrased about it all but suffice to say do not give anything of yourself away over the telephone, EVER!
People will always ring back if they are legitimate or find another way to contact you. If you are even mildly suspicious of their intentions then hang up!
Never buy anything over the phone.
I would hate anybody to feel any way near the way I did for about 4 hours this afternoon; sick to the stomach thinking I had completely ruined Christmas.
