Ask whether the bet was a winner first though!

He might have stuck £100 on Blackpool to beat Liverpool!!!

NO you must not go back to the place were you used it as you are alerting them that you are on to them,   just go straight to the police and report it

I was in a similar situation last year. Someone from my previous address had used my name to obtain 2 credit cards which they spent over £5,000 on. I only realised this when I checked my credit report by chance.
It took 6 months for my name to be cleared as a bad debtor from Experian. It was a total nightmare trying to prove to card companys that it wasn't me >:(

Bank asks £1.49 clothing shop in Harrogate, me , no dont know that one. Bank, right this is the one we have stopped and interested in, £300 on a gambling website . me , no dont gamble on line. Bank, it was attempted 3 times in 40 minutes today. me , so what happens now. Bank we have stopped payment on gambling website and we will refund you the two purchaes that you dont recognise and we will send you out a new card. New card arrives use it again for some purchases ( including wintec ) wife in adsa again , same thing happens , payment refused. Phoned bank again who ask me what KKK is lol . me well i know of the KKK but i wouldnt purchase anything off them. Bank , they tried to take £1.39 at 1 o'clock in the morning today. Me , can you tell me since i got my new card where have i used it. Bank told me that i ued the card at 10 different shops of which 2 were online TK maxx and wintecs. I have received a new card this last week and iam going to do a little experiment............cause i need some new gear.

My mint card got done over

More frightening for me, my current account, Barclays

bUT BOTH BANKS SORTED IT ASAP, ALTHOUGH, i'VE CHECKED MY MINT BALANCE AND IT HASN'T BEEN ALTERED, BUT THE ROUGH INTEREST HAS BEEN FROZEN - SUPPOSEDLY!
