UK banking fraud losses rise to £301.7m
,----[ Quote ]
| UK banking losses due to fraud in the first half of 2008 hit £301.7m compared
| to £263.6m in the same period last year, according to the latest figures from
| UK banking association APACS.
|
| Fraud abroad made up 40 per cent of total card fraud losses reaching £121.2m
| in the period, up 11 per cent of the £108.8m lost last year. That loss was
| through tactics such as the use of counterfeit plastic cards with stolen PINs
| on machines overseas that only check magnetic strips, not chips.
