Unknown Blockchain credit

We've had a bank credit into our Nationwide current account saying Blockchain Access. + £480

I've rung Nationwide and they have no idea except that maybe someone with Blockchain wallet has put the wrong account details when paying someone.  We've decided to sit on it and wait.
This morning I've found the same in my Co-op current account but for £145!
Now this rings a bell because in November we were victims of that Amazon Scam... Nationwide blocked the transactions quickly but Co-op wouldn't reimburse me as they said I didn't do enough to prevent it happening....it was £145!

Could it be that the scammers were caught and have had to pay back some of their debts?....or does it sound suspect to you please?
