Okay so basically someone has used my Debit Card to buy things, I don't know if they had access to my actual card or if I was skimmed or something other... After checking my bank balance a few hours back I noticed I was down £330, I looked at 2 transactions from today and noticed they were to "GAME LTD" which is a popular games retailer here in the UK. One of the purchases costed £279.99 - which I believe to be an Xbox One S (as its the only thing I could find for £279). So I am wondering whether or not the person could be tracked through this? If so it would really help as I have a feeling its a member of my own family and would like to avoid getting police involved - or if I have to would they be able to trace this purchase back?

Why not just call your bank and get your money back instead of tracking them?
Who knows who you might end up finding mane.

Contact your bank and tell them there is fraudulent activity. They will conduct an investigation themselves and hopefully get your money back.
The longer you wait, the less likely you get your money back.

Yeah this is the best option & solution Rigged. With it being "fraud" the person would more than likely be tracked down anyway, most probably without you knowing. Contact your bank, and contact GAME, you should have a transaction number of the purchase/reference/item number etc. Maybe tell them about it, if the purchase is being dispatched/in transit. Then you could possibly still cancel and get a refund that way.
Good look on this bud.

If you believe your bank account is being used by someone other than you with malicious intent then the first stop should always be your bank.
Not a website that has nothing at all to do with your finances.
If you inform your bank that money is being withdrawn and spent and it's not you, they will look into it, ask you questions and hopefully get the issue resolved asap. Don't waste your time here.

As said contact your bank. Beings that the amount is such a low amount I doubt police will get involved. I had a "friend" "barrow" over $700, I contacted my bank and told them I did not authorize the purchases but I know who did and gave them all of her information, gave all the information to the police and nothing happened to her...

Contact your bank as everyone else said but to answer your question the user can be easily tracked if he wasnt smart enough some people do have the knowledge to do this type of stuff and get away with it but id recommend contacting your bank ASAP.
