Particulars of Claim:
Hi, I am having this issue with this company and will try to explain the situation in detail...
In May 2014 my Barclays business account was abruptly closed without any explanation and after inquiring with Barclays as to why, they said they couldn't give me a reason. A month later, I had police knocking on my door saying that they are investigating a fraud case that involved one of my bank accounts. It turned out that a payment of £39,946 had been credited into my Barclays business account in May and the funds had been transferred out on the same day to another account. All this happened while I was out of the country and I explained that I did not have any knowledge of this. The police managed to identify the perpetrator who made the fraudulent transactions and it turned out that he worked for the finance department in the Claimant's company and in total had transferred over £100,000 to various accounts. Police are continuing their investigations.
In July, I then receive a County Court Claim from the Company that the funds came from (WGC Limited) asking me to pay back the above mentioned sum of money as they say I am responsible for the whereabouts of the moneys. They asked for my assets etc for the business and had my bank accounts frozen. I cant afford a lawyer and wanted to see where I stand in all of this. I am going for a court hearing tomorrow.
Thank you very much
