*****ulent Accounts at TymeBank

I would like to warn people about *****ulent accounts that people are opening at TymeBank. Someone opened an account using my details, and I only found out about it after I checked something from TFG as I have an account with them(apparently TymeBank has partnered with TFG). I called the bank to find out and indeed an account was opened in July 2023 with my details. I then requested them to close it as I had no idea who might have done it. I asked them how possible is it that an account is opened without my ID book/fingerprints and they mentioned that an account can be opened online. I was so shocked.

What happened to banks that are strict and requires fingerprints/ID Books/Smartcards or proof of everything(FICA documents). If people can be able to open accounts without any difficulties just by getting/knowing someone's information, then we are in trouble as a nation. I believe that lots of account in that bank might be *****ulent ones.

I hope you guys close that ****, *****ulent account asap!
