Scam Types and What To Do

Romance scam

Romance scammers will create fake profiles on social media platforms such as Facebook or dating websites such as Tinder or Hinge – typically using stolen photos of conventionally attractive people – to build an intimate (long distance) relationship with a victim.

Romance scammers will then, once a deep connection has been established, emotionally manipulate and extort you into sending money. Romance fraudsters will typically claim the following reasons for needing financial payments: claiming they have a frozen bank account, have a close relative who requires an emergency medical procedure, stranded and unable to pay for transports, are required to pay a hefty customs charge.

Family or friend impersonation scam

Scammers may pose as a family member or friend, often messaging on platforms such as Facebook Messenger through a fake profile, claiming to be in an emergency situation and asking you to send money to help them.

CEO fraud

CEO fraud, also known as Business Email Compromise (BEC), is a sophisticated scam targeting businesses of all sizes, with the UK seeing a significant rise in such cases. This form of cybercrime involves impersonating a company’s CEO or high-ranking executive to deceive employees, customers, or partners into transferring money and/or sensitive information.

CEO fraud typically begins with cybercriminals gaining access to, or spoofing, an executive’s email account. They then send convincing messages to employees, typically those working within finance or HR departments, detailing instructions to make urgent payments or share confidential information.

Such emails will often mimic the CEO’s writing style and use sophisticated social engineering tactics, making them hard to detect.

Mis Sold PCP Car Finance Claim

Can You Make A Claim?

If you’ve lost more than £3,500 due to a romance scam or fraud from a UK Bank account and haven’t tried to get compensation yet, or your UK bank has refused your claim, you may still be able to recover your losses.

Here are some situations where you might have a strong case for a claim:

  • You made payments that were unusual for your typical banking habits, such as large sums to suppliers when you usually make much smaller payments.
  • The fraudulent payments came from an account that was otherwise inactive.
  • You made payments to foreign accounts, even though your business operates entirely within the UK.

If any of these apply to you, or you believe your bank didn’t do enough to protect you from fraud, we’re here to help. Our experienced team will assess your case and work tirelessly to recover your losses.

frequently asked questions

How long does the claims process take?

We understand that, after being scammed on Facebook, you want to recover your money as quickly as possible. As a guide, if the UK Bank settles directly then the claim could take as little as 3 weeks. If the claim needs to be sent to the Financial Ombudsman Services (FOS), it can take 6+ months. Our experienced team works hard to resolve your claim quickly. We’ll keep you informed at every step of the process.

How much does it cost to make a romance scam claim or other scam claim?

At Claims Supermarket, we operate on a No Win No Fee pricing model for all of our Claims products, including Bank APP Scam Claims and other types of Scam Claims. If we win your case, we will charge you in accordance with the charges set out in the table below. Please note the charges set out below are plus VAT.

The fees set out below have been set by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (“the SRA”) and we cannot charge you more for our services.  There are certain circumstances, where the below table of fees will not apply, for example; in the event that your scam claim is complex or forms part of a Group claim via the Courts.  We would have to seek the SRA’s approval to charge you more than set out in the below table and we would need your agreement prior to any changes.

550,000 or above15%10,000

The reason we set the amount of your fee at the rates set out above plus VAT, is in accordance with the SRA Regulatory Arrangements (Claims Management Fees) Rules 2024, made by the Solicitors Regulation Authority Board which came into force on the 26th July 2024.

What if my bank has already refused my claim?

Even if your bank has refused your claim, you may still be eligible for compensation as a victim of a bank APP scam. Banks don’t always conduct thorough investigations or consider all the relevant factors. Our team will independently review your case and work to build a strong argument on your behalf.

Can I get my money back if someone used my debit card?

If your debit card has been used fraudulently, the regulations state you must be refunded immediately if you’ve had money taken from your account without your permission. You must report the loss of your debit card, or any unauthorised payments, as soon as possible.

How do I know if I’m eligible?

If a payment was made from a UK Bank Account to the fraudster, you are eligible to make a claim. If you are a resident of another country, then you are still eligible as long as the money was transferred from your UK Bank Account.

What Legal Code do the banks follow?

On 28 May 2019 UK Finance launched the Contingent Reimbursement Model Code for Authorised Push Payment Scams (‘Code’). This voluntary code (and to which the majority of the ‘big name’ banks have signed up) ensures that many victims of APP scams are reimbursed in full by their bank, provided that the victim has not acted with ‘gross negligence’ in making the payment. The Code applies to all personal customers and micro enterprises (an enterprise which employs fewer than 10 people and whose annual turnover and annual balance sheet total does not exceed €2m).

However, it is worth noting that any entitlement to any reimbursement under the Code will cover only the stolen funds and not any consequential loss claimed (for example, lost profits from a transaction for which the funds would otherwise have been used). For victims who fall outside the scope of the Code, seeking reimbursement of stolen funds from their bank can be more difficult.

What makes Claims Supermarket different?

  • Specialist advisors are involved on every APP scam case and if necessary we will pay for specialist advice.
  • Claims are professionally and individually prepared and are submitted with the relevant evidence to support such a claim.
  • We believe that by taking this approach you can be confident that you have a claim with a strong prospect of success.
  • Claims Supermarket will not charge you for the initial investigation and can work on a no win no fee to take a case forward.

What do I need to start my claim?

To get started, we’ll need some basic information about your case, such as the amount lost, the date of the incident, and any relevant correspondence with your bank. Our team will guide you through the process and let you know if any additional information is needed. Start your bank APP scam claim now by clicking here to complete our easy claim form.
