I STUPIDLY fell for a scam, paid an 'invoice' to a named person, valid bank details confirmed by receiving bank (NatWest)........SCAM COMPLETE (I realised, pity my brain didn't activate a few minutes faster).

My bank (Lloyds) & receiving bank retrieved the money & I had it back in my a/c within 3 hours.  Seems like the recipient of the invoice was a 'mule', has let his a/c be used to receive money by a 'friend'.

Maybe the same as you, for what 'might' have seemed a valid reason....BUT WASN'T.

OP - you may feel obligated to your payer regarding confidentiality but will feel six years of financial pain by doing so if the transaction was reported to be fraudulent, so you might wish to reconsider priorities....

Will banks no longer be required to do anti-money laundering checks in six years time?

What @eskbanker is saying is that the marker sits there for 6 years.

That is automatic? THe marker dropping? How do you know?
