Virgin credit card statement deception

DevCoder

Uhh Id take that scan down if I was you, you haven't redacted nearly enough information and that combined with your domain whois information which fills in the bit you have redacted and other parts of your website makes it a great catch for identity fraud.

Before you take it down: on the right hand side there is a box, giving you all the details as well as the current balance.

The transaction listing (left hand side) has "new balance this sheet" (which is less than your "current balance; obviously something is missing) then it says "continued on next page".

Sorry, it couldn't be any clearer.

The clue is the phrase "continued on next page".

And "current balance £280.05".

It's clear. I can't see any deception.

Yes I would have to agree with others, no deception i can see.
quite clear, as it says on this page.

Page 1 of 3
continued on next page
tells you your balance on the right hand side.

Not sure how much clearer they could make it other than making this text bigger, and bolder.
They just assume people read there statements properly.

Edit: I would agree to removing the statement as didnt realise you were going to use your own website to upload it, i now know your address, name, how much you paid for your house in 2006, and could find a bit more if i wanted.

As a democracy I accept I am in the minority! Many thanks for your input.

I have Herbalus to thank for disclosing that information so easily. Thanks a bunch. I won't use this forum again.

No, you did it by uploading it to a site with all your personal details on it, Herbalus just converted the details you wrote into a link.

Next time just use a site like Flikr or tumblr, or dropbox, or the million and one other file uploading anonymous sites. Give Herb a minute and i am sure he will remove it, or just remove it from your own site and all sorted.

I've removed it. There won't be a next time, thank you.

You can blame your own idiocy for that one

Just like you can't read a statement, you have no idea how the internet works.

Maybe best if you just paid for everything cash, avoiding any online shopping

Ouch! and I thought I read somewhere you should be nice to newbies :-)
