Gave out his bank account details, swore no one could take money out, in national paper.

Then was surprised when someone did LOL

LMAO!

At least he didn't end up with a Thai bride knocking on his door

Hmmm, not LMAO.

My bank details were amongst those lost and this just proves that there is something to worry about. Clarkson has kids under 16 too so his details would be included in those lost. That does mean however that his back should APPARANTLY be watching his account for fraudulent transactions. The prank still happened though didn't it!

All the government and bank assurances that things would be fine are ******** then. The only reason that shedloads of money hasn't gone missing is that the details really are completely lost haven't yet fallen into the wrong hands, or he wrong hands are just waiting for things to calm down before they strike.

Think I'm going to insist that my bank closes and reopens my account or I'll just move to a different bank.

Ridiculous. He was asking for trouble :smt011...bank details AND how to find out his address?? needs a good :smt075 IMO

Re: Clarkson admits being wrong! Shock Horror!
 

Lol!

Whoopsie :-P

No harm done like, just close the account, and I'm sure £500 is no hardship to him. But still, hehehehe.

What a spoon.

Re: Clarkson admits being wrong! Shock Horror!
 

So forget him being PM then.


He'd obviously make a cracking chancellor of the exchequer...

Re: Clarkson admits being wrong! Shock Horror!
 

So if someone wants to pay me via internet bank and I give them my account no. and sort code they can get at my money? Anyone who writes a cheque gives this information out freely, often with their address details.

I still don't understand how they managed to access his account.

After my experience with ID fraud a couple of years ago, I'm surprised thats all he got stung for.
