    Did any of you book or enquire about a stripagram because there is an agency in Horsham that has featured on the BBC Watchdog programe (youtube stripperwarning) run by a scammer and I suspect that this is how they got your card details.

    hey, you know how we're supposed to be nice to newbies? Does that also apply if they drag up posts from 2 years ago or can we call them the f***wits that they are?

    Yes. I believe that the newbie notice is statute barred if the thread is more than 2 years old.

    Hello.
    I googled 'Leisure Time scam' and this website and forum came up.
    I have receive in the last couple of days a glossy brochure from these people saying I had a mail order and also signed up to there membership - I didn't!
    I did order something over the internet with Ideal World (no signature) and Ideal World is mentioned on this thread.
    We don't actually use our Barclay cards and have today phoned and cancelled them, to stop this payment being taken by 'Leisure Time.'
    I signed a form in the bank the other day (Barclays) to do with my savings account and now I'm wondering if that's how they got my signature?
    I'm cross if Barclays has not got on top of this yet, as this thread goes back to 2008/9 !
    Anyone else had this happen recently please?
    (We haven't accepted any vouchers for petrol or anything else and we definitely haven't ordered any stripograms!!!)
