  • hey guys i have just gotten to the uk this january things was going well till i thought i should mingle with a friend who has lived her for a very long time. to cut the long story short my lloyds account which i opened when i got here, was used to recieve 1800 pounds on his behalf. i didnt know anything about fraud or receiving some payments might lead to account being closed as it was never like that in africa till i recieve the letter from lloyds that due to that payment, my account has been closed. i tried to open another account but i was told due to checks made on my profile they are unable to offer me an account. please guys what can i do.
