Financial grooming for a Fan Card

My SEN niece has been the subject of fraud on the Telegram app. She firstly thought she was talking to someone famous from ‘The Originals’ They somehow got her to open a Monzo account and transfer her funds from her regular nationwide account to it and then on to a scammer . She can’t read but talks to her phone. They persuaded her she was buying a Fan Card?! It was a large sum over several transactions. She still doesn’t understand the seriousness and I just hope they are able to recover all or some of it. Please take care this Fan Card fraud is apparently rife at the moment.
