'We had £300,000 taken in payment scam'
Quote:
People who have been conned into authorising their bank to pay a fraudster could find it easier to get compensation, under plans being put together by the regulator.
The Payment Systems Regulator is trying to devise a way to reimburse victims of authorised push payment (APP) scams.
In the first half of this year, 19,000 victims lost £100m to APP scams.
One such, Kate Blakeley, described the "sheer horror" of discovering the loss of almost £300,000 through such a scam.
