Does anyone have any experience with banking fraud?
I am really worried about my brother.
Yesterday my cousin messaged me asking me for a āsmall favourā
I said, sure, Iād help if I could, then received this message -
āIām needing to pay some bills but my online banking is downā¦ if I give you the sort and account number will you pay it for me? Itās for Ā£745 and Iāll pay back tomorrow with an extra Ā£30 if thatās okā
rang for me immediately.
I replied āCuz, I donāt have Ā£745 
ā then asked him who Oldie is to test if it was really Cuz.
No response, I head over to the extended family group chat, and itās suddenly blowing up with messages cos weāve all received the same thing and weāre all saying heās been hacked except my absolute sweetheart eldest brother who sayās HE FUCKING PAID THE MONEY STRAIGHT AWAY. The utter plum 
He REALLY cannot afford to lose any money at all let alone that sum.
Please reassure me that heāll be able to get his money back?
I am gutted for him

Had a very long day so weāre having steak and eggs for tea before I have to do some more chores etc. Feeling tired and achey and very run down tbh mates.
Thatās not good. Could your oldest brother call his bank immediately or put a hold on payment? Iāve had my card hacked numerous times as I travel a decent amount for work. Banks are pretty good these days of reimbursing money they feel can be from fraudulent transactions. I would keep all the texts and correspondenceās and head straight into the bank tomorrow or talk to a customer representative tonight explaining your situation.

Whoops sorry that was meant for gnomey.
Did he do it via debit or credit card?
Also goes without saying report as a criminal offence and get a crime ref number

FUCKS SAKE
Our bathroom door is a slidey thing with no lock. The rule is that if the door is fully closed then it is occupied
Just needed a piss so went to the bathroom, the door was slightly open so figured the coast was clear, didnāt even think my flatmate was in yet so didnāt even register that she might be in there
she was in the shower
but itās worse than that
the water wasnāt running
she was very very clearly giving her pubes a wee trim
fucks sake!!
I am mortified. I donāt think sheās that bothered cos sheās european and they donāt really give a shit about nudity but oh my god please let the ground swallow me up
iām an idiot iām an idiot iām an idiot
