PH cheque scam fraud possibility?
Discussion
I think I've been scammed by a fellow PHer that sold me a Silverstone Classic weekend ticket - I sent a cheque for £42 to a long time PHer ( name currently witheld for legal reasons) who after a few weeks said the cheque hadn't arrived. I then sent another cheque for £42 which was accepted as payment for the weekend ticket.
The day after I'd sent the second cheque...the first cheque got debited to my account...with my replacement cheque getting debited a few days later.
I'm willing to accept it's a misunderstanding....but what is the legal way to get redress?

Maybe the first cheque was stolen and was cashed by the thief, rather than a scam?
THat was my thought.Ask your bank for copies of the two cheques that have cleared and see if they were cashed in the same account.
You may well find that the name has changed on the original one.
