Credit card scammer - This weekend in France (LFG/Folembray Trip) Check your bank accounts guys!

Hi - this was posted in Sussex just so I thought I put it out on Seloc chat as its important.

One of the guys on the LFG & Folembray trip has had his card scammed for €600 either from the Eurotunnel shops or the petrol station near the Hotel. Worth checking your accounts to make sure that you are safe! Wankers!


Cross post from SELOC thread here. Sounds like it might have been a Eurotunnel cash machine. Worth checking your bank accounts.


My card has also been scammed to the tune of £120, it was done an hour after we filled up at the euro tunnel petrol station, after we got off the train :( check your banks guys we all filled up there.


Hang on, didn't you say it did something funny with your card...? You thought you hadn't paid. What does it say on your statement??

That was at the next one, according to my reciept we paid for petrol at the eurotunnel station at 15.30 and the money was taken at 14.20 ish so that was before we got to the next station right??

I filled up at the Tesco Folkestone before leaving, and refilled at the Folkestone Total just after we left the train when we got back to the UK , everywhere else in France I used Euros to avoid this, checked my card and so far no scams

I like to do my bit for Anglo-French relations, although I did draw the line at that guy trying to kiss me.

I actually remember taking some of those photos, but I left out the really dodgy ones to protect the innocent.

Vix, I think it was the first petrol station just as you come of the tunnel. The £120 has been refunded to my account today :)
