Steady on people, we are dealing with a very frightened 17 year old here.
Is there no one you can turn to for help and advice? What about your older relatives? Mum, dad, uncle, brother.........? I really don't expect you to be able to deal with this on your own, you must tell someone what has happened. Even if they don't have any immediate suggestions, you can talk it through with them and decide on a way forward. Good luck.I came into this world with nothing and I've got most of it left.0 -

No man I can’t talk to anyone about this as i fear I have ruined my whole life at such an early age I feel there is only one way out of all this I’m so ashamed of myself0 -
You're letting it all get totally out of proportion. Talk to someone.....anyone, someone a bit older and wiser. They'll tell you what a plonker you've been, but your life is most definitely not ruined.No man I can’t talk to anyone about this as i fear I have ruined my whole life at such an early age I feel there is only one way out of all this I’m so ashamed of myselfI came into this world with nothing and I've got most of it left.0 -

Well, I'm thinking you should phone Samaritans and get some advice.
Or at 17 are you legally a minor (or not these days??) Childline?
Tomorrow can you go to Citizens Advice?
Pastoral care at school or college?
Yes, this is serious but think what you can do that is positive, not negative.Being polite and pleasant doesn't cost anything! --
Many thanks

Don't let them make you feel like this, that is there plan to target young naive people and scare them. My dd has worked with several people in similar situation than you, the first step was telling the thread you obviously want help. Now tell someone you can trust then get them to go to the bank and police with you. If you come forward now it will be fine the police will protect you, We are not talking of huge amounts of money going through your account just one silly mistake. GET HELP GET IT SORTED AND PUT IT BEHIND YOU XXX0 -
I feel too much of a criminal and I have always over thought things in the past way too much to the point I throw up right now I’m in such a state I can’t seem to make sense of it but only filled with such self hatred for myselfrhosynbach wrote: »Don't let them make you feel like this, that is there plan to target young naive people and scare them.

Have you been reading the newspaper today, before joining MSE.....today!

Come on pal, just talk to the police on 101 or via Actionfraud. This may well be the trickiest situation you've gotten into so far in your life, but rest assured one mistake is rarely fatal. It's human to make errors of judgement, what's important now is to control the damage as best you can, and that will involve letting your nearest and dearest know what's happened and getting their support (and a bit of a rollicking if your parents are like mine were). For what it's worth I doubt the bloke you spoke to is legitimately an hours drive from you (that's what they want you to think to intimidate you), and at any rate now the bank has frozen your account the game is up and you couldn't do any more "jobs" for them if you wanted to.
Speak to:
Your family!
Police on 101 if you feel threatened
Police on 999 if you honestly believe you're in imminent danger
Actionfraud to let the police know the nature of the scam
Samaritans on 116 123 if you are getting stressed and having grim thoughts
Later on contact your bank for any updates they're authorised to give you, and also consider getting a copy of your credit report from Experian, Equifax and/or Callcredit to see what effect this incident has had on your financial health.: )0
