Royce Clark, managing director of Grampian Furnishers in Lossiemouth, has seen his online sales targeted by a ‘customer’ using fraudulent cards.

"We have been hit by a number of rogue payments over the last month," he revealed.

In every case the person ordered goods and gave a London delivery address.

With Grampian Furnishers expanding their business through online sales, they are now delivering across the UK.

The fraudster even tried to buy a £499 sofa which the company managed to stop just before it went for delivery. However, a number of items had been delivered.
