So, let me get this right - Jack boasted about having lied about her age in order to get herself a kid’s account (bit of a lame boast, but whatever floats your boat mate). A squiggle reports this tweet and Jack gets her account stopped because she didn’t qualify for the account because she’s a grown up. And now she’s furious because squiggle squealed on her?

It's tattle's fault, obviously, even though there's absolutely no evidence that either of the accounts who have said they reported her are users of this site.
 
Blimey. This actually has made me think about the wisdom of plastering your entire life on SM. Not just Jack (and not that this impersonation happened obviously) but I bet you a lot of people could answer security questions about people who live their entire lives on twitter and IG.
They give every bloody private detail about their and their family's lives.

I am pretty certain you can't do anything with the banks unless you give them your partial password of your id or answer security questions and give account details. If you have forgotten that, they will post it to you a temporary one that you can log into and reset your info. They can't really do anything with just a name, address and d.o.b. She is talking out her her chunky mediterranian arse as per usual.

I thought most of them now require you to use a one-time passcode (digitally generated or sent to your mobile) when you make a transaction or request access to your account.
She’s talking shite of course. She’s been caught out, so has tried to change her story, and now thinks talk of police/book deadline will put a end to it.
Such a shameless bare-faced liar. She just lies and lies and lies and lies.

I don't even do those 'post what single was #1 in the charts on your birthday' things on twitter, even though my account is generally locked, because I don't want to give randoms any clues as to my date of birth. Incidentally, while Jack blames wikipedia for everyone knowing her birthday, she also posts about it being her birthday on her birthday. #forensic
 
I just love it when we get a chaos like this! every time, more sensible squiggles (not the rabid, bigoted, obsessive types) question events and every time, (slowly softly gently) another squiggle or two sees the light.

I still can't believe the stan squigs though, seeing this and just going, "yeah, a lil fraud's just fine. anything for our top princess, as long as she posts us crisps and lion bars" 🙃
 
Although let’s just remember that she is claiming someone contacted “the bank” by email claiming to be her and this resulted in SB’s account being closed.
Maybe his dad could set up his GoHenry? Problem solved!
The cross-pollination of minor players with frau-like abilities is quite something <insert overused p Silva crime map gif>

Basically. Yes

Every time I have to ring my bank I’m literally sweating that I get all the security stuff correct !! I have to write things out so I’m not scrabbling about in my brain when they ask me for the 2nd character of the 3rd word 😂 It’s VERY difficult to impersonate someone.

I was always taught to, appropriately enough for Jack, lie on the answers. So if your first pet was called Fido you don’t put Fido, instead put Gary the Goldfish or other name you’ll remember but isn’t actually a pet you had. If you grew up on Downing Street put Albert Square as that answer etc. That way even if someone does know the true answers, it won’t match your security ones.
 
For any newcomers, just a reminder: the GoHenry tale first appeared in November, when Jack was pretending that she was providing for 2 adults and 1 child on 20£ a week:

(This was categorically untrue: her slop pics at the time routinely featured ingredients that had never been in her shopping lists, plus she was chomping away on penny sweets, soft soft cheap white bread, finding mystery food down the back of the fridge, etc. Plus she wasn't using a GoHenry card, as her posted Asda receipts showed.)

She also claimed it in her seminal essay, "Potatoes":

This was first published in July, but has been edited several times to become ever more unwieldy. I am confident that the GoHenry aside was a later edit.

Then she posted a comment about it on noted con artist Sarah Akwisombe's Instagram, as a money saving tip.

I am neither gifted nor talented, but "I SAVE MONEY BY COMMITTING FRAUD" seems like an odd tip to suggest.

It's amazing. Last week she was posting about how she couldn't get in to her own google mail document because of the stringent security measures, but of course any old person can 'hack' her bank account. (usual 'didn't happen' disclaimer to all of the above).
