Klarna search for an unsecured loan on my Experian fraud report

Options
Hi, I was just notified by Experian of a search on my Experian fraud report by Klarna Financial Services for an unsecured personal loan quotation for an amount of £599 earlier this month. But I haven't applied for a personal loan. I'm currently in the process of moving house so have a mortgage application ongoing, but surely it's nothing to do with that. I've notified Experian that I don't recognise this search. Can anyone shed any light or advise what else I should do? Thanks in advance.

    Complain to Klarna about the fraud and demand they remove it - maybe get an Action Fraud case reference first

    Talk to your mortgage provider and make them aware there is a fraud on your account and that you didn't apply for this

    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.
