$300,000
Dozens of London-based Slovakians have been arrested in northern France after using Barclays bank cards to fraudulently withdraw more than £300,000 in cash. The astonishing scam saw up to 50 of the eastern Europeans arrive in Calais early last Friday morning before emptying cash points across the region. Armed police made 34 arrests, but not before many had fled with bags of money which remain unaccounted for.
