Unhappy Internet Fraud?

Customer has advised internet fraud has occured where money has gone from their account so cheque issued to me has RDPR; could this be fact or is this a load of cowdung?

If true...how long before internet Police launch an investigation?

If false how will i tell?

Thanks in advance.........Either way I'm out of £800.00

If the cheque is RDPR then surley its due to lack of funds otherwise it wouldn't be PR it would just be RD

Sorry re phrase

The Internet fraud thing is a red herring as far as your conerned. Your customer needs to make funds available to allow the represenation of your cheque otherwise Issue small claims action.

Hope its no one on here?

Unhappy

Phil I'm sure the integrity of all business men/women of Scoobynet would prevent them of this sort of conduct.

If it was I'd be most disappointed & I'm sure customers would give them a wide berth.......

Schemimg b8st8drds.........

I disagree

If you are owed money its quite simple.

They need to pay you

I certainly would not think anything less of your business if you sued someone. its none of my business.

If they have problems they need to sort them

We'll know on Monday when the cheque is due to be repaid.....I know I'm owed £800 quid & another cheque has been issued to another supplier for the same amount; the funny thing is the original cheque was XX & XX trading as XX & the new cheques issued is XX trading as XX....

I'm concerned in if i have to take legal action on the original cheque I could have pursued 2 people (privately) though now I can only legally pursue 1 person AKA the new cheque.

Fortunately I had a night out with my solicitor friend that owns a solicitors & he advised me i can claim against both parties for at least 7 years..........The above changes are seen as an opt out in the court of law.....Happy Days for Me..... I can still pursue both parties.....
