  • This must be a joke post surely...
  • HSBC is a worldwide bank and has offices throughout Europe, so yes they will find you.

  • They will find where you live and enforce proceedings on your home address.
    Europe has changed since you came to the UK.. good luck back home.

    I saw one in the bankruptcy forum just yesterday where the person admitted they took out a card from a bank they didn't like to pay their bankruptcy fee with the sole intention of putting that card into the bankruptcy so the bank wouldn't get the money back. I can absolutely believe this is legitimate

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

  • So.. just spammers then or bored schoolkids

    Hahahaha, that's a good one, you deserve to get away with what your proposing just for posting that :T
  • I believe the forum authorities may have noted your registered email address and contacted HSBC to see whether they hold the same email address anywhere within their records. If you haven't properly covered your tracks, you can expect your card to be cancelled any time soon and then picked up at the point of sale. Better move quickly with that cash withdrawal.

    And, be more careful next time, Mastermind.
