Looking at my bank statement yesterday, I notice its down 267.00 and a payment has been made via paypal, so I check my paypal statement, no history for the last week whatsoever.
Where it normally says GBP it had beem replaced with DOM whatever currency that is?
Basically some fucker from the dominican republic or somewhere has robbed 270 from me, and the date it happened it happened is the same day I activated it! Someones either been reading my post, or someone at NatWest has been selling card details to 3rd parties!
Got a claim in with the NatWest fraud team, just have to sit and wait. Sisters bf recovered a grand he got nicked online so hope for the best.
That money was gonna pay for Apex dampers n powerflex bushes off kam racing as well!!

Also, this makes me double angry knowing SaxoAL had his VTS stolen (and recovered thankfully) but just pisses me off so much people have no right to take what isn't theres!

If you search google there isn't actually any results for 'DOM Currency'
It clearly says on my statement in place of GBP, DOM but then the balance part is -267GBP so im guessing it must be equal to pounds
If I don't get this money back it could potentially ruin my entire summer

Not just that dude you wanna find where the source is coming from, they could have all sorts of information about you..
My brothers ex cloned my mum and dads bank cards and chipped away at it £20 here and there, until she got greedy and got caught...
Hope you get it back though, you wonder why people hide there money under there bed because there scared of this stuff happening..

True that, makes you wonder how they've done it, could be that someones been opening mail or passing the details on, or it could be someone on your pc, watching everytime you access your online banking etc.!
Think ill be getting alllllllllll my passwords changed just in case!

have you got virus protection on your pc. I'd suggest you install
Avira antivirus and superantispyware

Ive got one of the best antivirus and firewalls available, ESET smart security, i have no idea how its happened, i saw a TV program about people on the inside selling card details and as my card had literally been activated for less than a day, i think its possible someone has gained the card number, security number etc. then just added it to their paypal account!

Sucks arse me :(
Simililar thing happened to my mother a few years ago. Father went online and checked the bank.... FUCK 900 quid's gone. They'd bought something from an online electrical store.
Father got straight onto the bank and this website. Some bint had bought a brand new digital camera. Bank sorted the money out straight away and police couldn't give a flying toss even though they had the address it had been posted to and everything. lol.

FFS why you gone to bank, reclaim it through PayPal.
With PayPal you have payment protection and anyway if its not showing on ur recent transaction in PayPal, its not gone out of PayPal or even gone through PayPal.

My card got cloned, guessing from a petrol station or somewhere dodgy - someone took out 300 euros out in germany! Was great coming home to find i needed a new exhaust and didnt have any money to replace it!
Complete gay, good luck.

his old card would have been cancelled and he will have another so the frausters have old invalid data now.

DOM is the aacronym for the dominican iirc, like we have GBP, USD etc
You should get the cash back no probs tbh, i had over a grand stolen from me in australia & the bank had refunded it within a week or 2
