Hi,
I received a letter recently from the Police in London further to investigations carried out by them regarding gumtree, ebay and Barclays car scam. They say that they have frozen assets and to contact the fraud dept of Barclays. I have done this and, true to form, received a letter back from them stating the account my money was transferred into they were not aware at the time that it was being used for fraudulent behaviour, this I think is untrue, I phoned them back a week later to ensure the account had been closed and they just fobbed me off. The response also stated that the bank account has since been closed as they are now aware this was used for fraudulent activity but no money was frozen from this bank account. Has anyone on the forum received a refund from Barclays I'm just curious if there is anything else I can do and if anyone has ACTUALLY received a refund from Barclays regarding the car scamming.
Thanks.
