Just a bit worried as it has come to my attention that someone has my full name, address, bank account and sort code by mistake. Could they do anything dodgy with it?

Go easy please as I have OCD and this is causing endless anxiety!

Your bank account number and sort code are on every transaction you make. They are on cheques even (though not many of them around any more).

Having this information is not generally an issue. It could make it easier for someone who is determined to defraud you but many people have legitimate access to this information.

Keeping a close eye on your bank account is always a good idea.
