Hi,

Never really done anything like this before but I'm asking for a bit of a helping hand. I've recently had a sum of money taken out of my bank account fraudulently - it looks like someone has got hold of my personal data and managed to access my account. I'm going through all the fraud investigation process with the bank/police etc at the moment but in the meantime this has left me very short on funds, not to mention that a large chunk of the money was earmarked for a family holiday with my three children for which the balance is due very shortly. I'm a single mum who works full time and I've slogged for two years to finally be able to pay for a holiday (it will be our first as a family) only for this to happen!

I'm gutted and now faced with cancelling and loosing a £500 deposit on top of everything else. So I thought I would reach out - not asking for large sums just any amount that will help me cover the shortfall and help me secure our family time away.

I've raised hundreds of pounds for a good cause on here before, I am an honest hardworking individual with a bad luck!
