Late to this thread but enjoing the fun twixt prickly Dave et al.

Just by the way, some time ago I read an article by someone on ebay
about using bank transfers to pay for things. As he pointed out, to
crack the account with the info of just bank a/c and sort code would
be no mean task. (I'm aware this thread is about *id* theft). He
actually put his own details in the article and invited readers to
attempt to take money from his account! Of course it could've been
his wife's account I thought to myself - or maybeTony Bliar's
(remember him?). Well anyway I thought, that's pretty brave - so I
just looked up the article for us to savour - and guess what, it's
gone! Guess he went bust :-)

In case anyone's interested it was at
