Business Development Managers on the take!

Interesting that a Business Development Manager at Lloyds TSB in Scotland has been involved in a mortgage scam.

I wonder if this is the only Business Manager Lloyds TSB have had over the last 3 or 4 years that has been on the take - Somewhere in the Peterborough region, for example?

Lloyds TSB - Britain’s favourite bank - for fraudsters

So, going to court; all of a sudden the Bill of Exchange and Cheque Acts no longer apply.

“we didn’t make a mistake” and “we were unwitting parties to the fraud” were 2 such statements from The Bank which seem to contradict one another - see you in Court Lloyds TSB, eh?

So, if you want to launder your money; if you want to get any old cheques paid into any old account; if you want to dupe the General Public into parting with £millions, please give your local Lloyds TSB a shout - they offer this as a ‘value add’ to their clients.

No doubt once the criminal case against the fraudsters also starts, they and the DTI will be paying the price for ignoring both their duty and their inability to spot an event “…which has all the hallmarks of a large scale fraud…”* when they see one.

*Case Number HC04 C00197 - Justice Henderson presiding.
