Just to let fellow modellers know if they don't already know thet Hannants site has been compromised. I recieved call from the fraud team asking if I had spent £450 in the states today,when I replied that I had not I was informed that someone had tried to but it had been blocked. I mentioned that I had used Hannants in the past and the chap said "AH your the second one thats happened to", its nearly a year since I used them so beware, check your statements. If you used them check. Just a heads up . Alfie

The scammers tried to rape my card for just under £900,but my bank were on the ball and rejected them,only one got through for £294 but that was refunded straight away.
Please ,please check your statments! they will try a small amount 1st,say £2 mobile phone top up and if that works they go mental on it,BUY.COM seems favorite!
