    Real or fake? — MoneySavingExpert Forum
    I am real, I have lost a lot of money.  I feel a total idiot, how could I have been so stupid.

    I am serious,  I have lost alot of money,  How I could have been so stupid,  The bank will not help me.  I went to Action Fraud and gave all the emails and text messages.  They hounded me.

    I think that thread was asking if the ads with Martin Lewis were fake or real.

    You're not the only one who has been scammed in this way.
    I guess all you can do is being ultra-careful in future and do lots of research before you part with any money - and ask on here if you're still not sure.
