- Since being left paralysed in 2009, whilst working on the Harry Potter film franchise as Daniel Radcliffe’s stunt double, David Holmes has vowed ‘pain is inevitable but suffering is a choice’. However, after falling victim to sophisticated scammers last week, and being scammed out of tens of thousands of pounds - the former stuntman has been left feeling ‘shame, regret, pain and loss’. Convinced that he’d never be a victim, David joins Ben and Cat to issue a stark warning as he reveals how deceptive and clever these new age of criminals really are.

He is absolutely right about everything he said. In hindsight you realize the scam but in the moment these scammers are incredibly convincing.
Daniel Radcliffe needs to put his hand in his pocket and look after this poor man
Not his fault tho is it
@@kurt7842 Daniel is worth 200 million. He knows what to do
@John-lp5xh still doesn't make him liable. Having money doesn't mean he should pay the guy
@@kurt7842 Daniel knows what is right, will he do what is right? , that's another matter
@John-lp5xh you're idea of what's "right" might not be right. Have you ever concidered that
Your bank will NEVER call you. If someone says they're from the bank - hang up and check with your bank.
Scammers are getting smarter and it's up to us to keep up to date with scams.
My bank did call me and ask me if I want to invest in a new project XD
@@lepetitchat123 hahaha how much were they asking for?
I work for a credit facility and @beckscald3855 you are incorrect.
Your bank can and will call you if they recognise your account is compromised and requires action to protect it.
However, your bank/credit facility will never EVER ask for your PIN or your pass code sent to your phone.
If you receive a call from your bank/credit facility they will absolutely be happy to end the call and for you to call them on the number printed on your card.
This isn't correct, banks in the UK DO call customers. It is especially common when they want to check if a recent transaction is genuine.
@@hextree that's a bit different. You'd also be able to check your bank account to see if things track. They wouldn't call you out of the blue regarding something like what he's been through. I would always recommend hanging up and calling the bank back. Then you know its 100% legitimate.
My Mrs had the exact call and was falling for it was only by chance I overheard the conversation and knew that banks never ring you from the fraud team first red flag "they will never ring you"..... Grabbed the phone from her and told him I knew his game he hung up instantly. I saved her from a right mess.
It is okay to say you are not feeling sorry BUT there are some disgusting, manipulative, coercive and sick people out there. It makes me sick and so angry knowing those people are out there!
you really need to come up with a better title. people will click on this thinking something else
Which is the whole point I think
@@Cupo52 exactly click bait, increase their views
Lol it's called Clickbait. Being around since the birth of the internet.
@@michaelmcgeoch5721 YES
@@thedappercook ALSO YES
Never give personal information. Hang up and call your bank on the number on your debit card.
I hope this guy gets helped out.👍
Happened to me. Bank never gave me my money back but thank you to Ombudsman who did.
Scammers are getting better. The lesson here is hang up and phone your bank. Or even better visit your bank which ia harder nowdays because they close so many.
Shocking and so cruel
I never trust my bank when they call me, even when they're genuine. I always call them back myself so I know who I'm ringing.
That's not your bank calling you
@@Black.Sabbath It's only happened to me once or twice and the bank has confirmed it was indeed them both times when I called back. So some calls from the bank are genuine.
Please arrange a fundraiser ❤
You need to change this click bait title, it’s really sad that you’re making it out to be the Harry Potter franchise scamming this victim
How did you get that from the title
@@alcandorhan2918 it is called clickbait my friend
@@koraliedesenneville4887how do you not?
@@Cupo52no
Never even entered my head
A bank telling you the insurance wont cover your loss? That is a red flag
Watch Kitboga or Scammer payback! These channels on TH-cam have existed for years.
If your unsure or think the accent is questionable; hang up and actually call the bank and ask. Usually your bank doesn’t call and ask for your details, they’re already on file.
Of cause they’re nice on the phone; they want your money.
If the person has an indian accent then it isn't your bank. Plus banks would never call you
Hang on. If you're on the phone to "Natwest" and you see Natwest trying to call you, and the person tells you "do not pick it up" that should tell you to stop the call.

its only been this easy for scammers since online banking.
I was scammed aswell 😢😢😢😢It is a traumatic experience thank god not a lot of money. These scammers are genuine and make it look so real a naive person would never think twice. Learned a lesson from this horrible experience 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
the boy who survived... lol ok ben needs to watch harry potter again lol
it's a documentary about this guy - 'the boy who lived'
No bank will ever call you and ask you to move any funds anywhere. If you hear anyone calling you, this could be your bank, insurrance company or even police, asking you to move some funds into a ‚secure wallet/account” just end the call.
Apple & Samsung need to do more to work with Networks to identify and verify real businesses & Fake scammers that are calling
Come on people anyone know how to set up a open gofundme page for this guy
I was thinking the same thing - can we not set up a godundme?
I'm not being insensitive, so please don't take me the wrong way. If he suffered such a significant spinal injury whilst on the set of a harry potter film, he will have received a massive settlement in compensation.
@@1pootle So that gives someone the right to scam it off him does it?. Doesn't matter if the victim is a millionaire or only has £10 in their account, crime is crime and victims deserve better.
Why doesn't he ask Ratcliffe?
I didn't know a stuntman suffered such a dreadful injury during HP filming. I'll never be able to watch this movie again without feeling sad and frustrated. Such an unnecessary tragedy 🥺
Just pit phone down simple
Horrible scamers
I have banking on my phone i would always check there first and hang up go into thw bank in person. This exact same scam happened to my colleague. And shes had to put up with it for ages now them taking money.
shocked they dont just say the actual amount out loud as im sure the stars would band together to help him out watch this space , daniel just walks in with a giant cardboard check!
😢 that bad
Can’t believe this happened to David I watched his documentary a few months back what a amazing human hopefully there a go fund me or something to help him
😢 it turns out it was Daniel Radcliffe trying to get his money back...
Exactly how did he know his number and birthday
They could've got it of the internet.
If you even have the slightest bit of doubt whether it’s your bank which I’m sure it crossed his mind, hang up and call your bank number back up immediately and ask if it’s genuine? Claims he isn’t naive but come on?
Savings Evanesco!
whos Alice lol >>>??
They tried this on me also
"The whole point of crypto is that it can't be traced." Eh? Isn't it traceable on the blockchain?
It's only 'traceable' as far as some hash address is sending x amount to some other hash address. There's no actual name or details attached to the transaction. If you can follow the chain back to some known address for an exchange that performs KYC then yes you could request the customer data from the company. However many people who don't want to be traced will just buy and sell p2p.
@@hextree p2p, does that mean between 2 cold wallets? Then I guess as long as you don't ever use an exchange, or buy from store that needs kyc with the bitcoin payment you could never be traced, but you would just have to keep using p2p with other criminals kind of on the black market for favours, black market items, etc? Cause youd never be able to convert it into cash I guess using banks etc.
@@Trance9 yes, that's correct. Though p2p is pretty easy, and is safer than exchanges since you lose all your money if the exchange gets hacked. If you are in countries with a crypto community, you aren't necessarily trading with other 'criminals', it's just like selling on ebay or craiglist etc. Before exchanges were a thing, it used to be the only way people traded.
they . Tried this oor one
when will ppl realize that BANKS DO NOT CALL CUSTOMER'S!!!!! IM not feeling sorry for people who think "that won't happen to me."
Banks do call customers. I used to work in the fraud department for a bank, and we'd call the customer whenever the system detected a strange transaction on their account to check it over with them.
No you guys need to just block the account until the customer calls@R.W.S.
Because it isn't true, banks in the UK DO call customers. I've been called many times, it is especially common when they want to check a recent transaction is genuine.
@@R.W.S. I always hang up and call the number on the back of my debit card if this happens. I had one a few weeks back saying I had taken out a credit card, which I had not. I hung up and called my bank, who advised it was a scam.
@@hextree Yeah maybe, but I still hang up and call the number on the back of my debit card if this happens. Yes it is more fuss and takes longer, but it is nothing compared to being scammed. Usually your bank will text you a code or you can use your fingerprint via the phone app if your phone has this facility for verifying a transaction.
Cat Deeley is no Holly Willoughby, she’s a bit of an odd person
I think she was good with Ant and Dec. People with energy.
Scammed by cryptocurrency and then scammed by this, nightmare.
Hi harsh I genuinely believe the dad is innocent in all this he mite have been told little bits but the mom I think is up to neck in it with Lucy mae
Why are you commenting on something that has NOTHING to do with this story.
@@beckscald3855 yeah, makes no sense.
However it might be a TH-cam glitch, I've had it before where it puts a comment on the wrong video and maybe they didn't see it to deleate it 😅😂🤷♀️
@@steam_jane5580 ah didn't know that it could be a glitch.
Plonker
Click bait
I don't feel sorry for crypto bros.
Totally misleading.
