Someone stole my debit card details and made £1800 worth of payments to some mobile gambling company I hadn't heard of. The bank reimbursed me and contacted the company for their investigation, but then that company 'refunded' me another £220 for some reason. So I'm actually up?? also the £ sign is considered an invalid character in thread titles lmao

I just don't know what to do with this information OP. To help facilitate this, can you please tell us how many pounds (mass) of butter you would theoretically be able to purchase with 220 pounds (currency). Would your current freezer be large enough to accommodate this amount of butter?

that was me who defrauded you, op. let's split the 220 you made
|
# ? May 31, 2022 10:24 |

I think it's about 63lbs of butter. To figure how much would fit in the freezer I would have to measure the sizes of both, and I'm not gonna do that

1 pound is about 500ml of volume so 63lb would take 31.5 litres of space, or 21 large bottles of soda.

Have you contacted action fraud, Someone stole my wallet, with my drivers license and debit card. They asked for £50 pound and they’ll give it to me, Because my dumbass just woke up, I was like “gently caress all” and payed him. Obviously, my stuff never arrived.

Like a decent digital piano is still gonna be like more than double the price AFAIK, but it does take some of the sting off for sure

Wouldn't spend that for a bit till it all shakes out, as there's a non-zero chance they'll be come back with 'The money was paid in error, please return it'. Time for different payments to go through, two different departments working at cross-purposes, general gently caress-ups, etc etc. Hopefully you're fine, but I'd err on the side of caution for at least a few weeks.

I wanted to be certain nobody still had access to my account and b. I didn't want anyone to think I was the actual fraudster (even if sticking your head above the parapet is likely to get it blown off). It was then I was told the games company had issued the refund after being contacted by the fraud team. So nobody should be able to accuse me of not acting in good faith, even if I don't understand how the refunds correlate with the fraudulent payments.

You Are A Elf posted:What is 220 British pounds in stone? The name "stone" derives from the use of stones for weights, a practice that dates back into antiquity. The Biblical law against the carrying of "diverse weights, a large and a small" is more literally translated as "you shall not carry a stone and a stone (אבן ואבן), a large and a small". There was no standardised "stone" in the ancient Jewish world, but in Roman times stone weights were crafted to multiples of the Roman pound. Such weights varied in quality: the Yale Medical Library holds 10 and 50-pound examples of polished serpentine, while a 40-pound example at the Eschborn Museum is made of sandstone. A Roman Pound The units of weight or mass were mostly based on factors of 12. Several of the unit names were also the names of coins during the Roman Republic and had the same fractional value of a larger base unit: libra for weight and as for coin. Modern estimates of the libra range from 322 to 329 g (11.4 to 11.6 oz) with 5076 grains or 328.9 g (11.60 oz) an accepted figure. The as was reduced from 12 ounces to 2 after the First Punic War, to 1 during the Second Punic War, and to half an ounce by the 131 BC Lex Papiria.

It occurs to me that there might not be bags of frozen mini-tacos for sale in the UK What do you buy in the UK when you're high, drunk or lazy and want something that is absolutely zero effort and doesn't actually taste that good so you usually douse it in some kind of sauce or just get so blitzed that you don't care about the flavor?
