My lads been scammed,after all the advice i gave him over the years and he's fallen for a scam basically he was told it was buying shares and stock markets this lad sets an account up does what he needs to do and then he will get a payment and he has to give the lad half of it.This was all done when they were pissed up my lad and 2 mates done it so all 3 getting done for it.My lads worked since he left school never been in a job centre in his life.
So this lad as applied for universal credit advance payment,the money went into my lads account he give this lad half,few weeks later the lad messages him do you want to do it again my lad said yes so again this lad done a uc scam again.Once the money was paid my lad sent him half to his bank account.Months later my lad gets a letter needs to go for interview under caution i went with him.According to the claim my lads 25 and as 3 kids,each claim was different names on the claim but both claims went through,checking my lads bank account says uc fast paument,now my lad didnt have a clue just thought it was this stocks thing.
He explained all this in interview he even gave them the lads bank details my lad made payment to,he's received a letter saying about receiving a caution and needs to pay money back which is fair enough but on top got to pay about £1500 extra which seems way over the top.Now they have no evidence what so ever my lad made this claim,which he never he fell for a scam,yes he received money but thinking it was from this stocks thing.
Would he be best to except it and pay nearly 4 grand back or refuse and let it go further,end of the day he's been scammed he's not made the claim and tbh i can't understand how its that easy to make a claim like this.My daughter signed on and had to attend interviews before she even got any money from them
