DEAR DEIDRE: I lent some money to someone I thought I could trust but now I’m worried that I've been scammed.

Try not to beat yourself up. You were being kind and thought you were helping someone you could trust.

If he still continues to ignore your calls, you can find out how to take legal action through the Gov UK's website (gov.uk/options-if-youre-owed-money).

If nothing comes of it you may need to see this as a learning curve and be cautious lending money to anyone again.
