A women in Scotland who sent for a "free" teeth whitening gel ended up paying £90 for the treatment after scammers helped themselves to the funds from her account.
Local newspaper the Sunday Mail reported Marie Grant, 44, of Airdrie had expected to pay just £3 postage for the gel – which was being shipped from the US – but instead realised she had been duped when the company took the additional amount.
"I used the gel pen and was not impressed but thought no more about it until I received a delivery of a further three whitening pens the same day as my credit card statement," Ms Grant told the publication.
Elsewhere, people living in Edinburgh could soon benefit from the setting up of the first dental surgery to offer dental veneers in the city.
The Scotsman reported Dr Biju Krishnan of the Lubiju dental practice in Leith has recently returned from California and plans to become only the third dental practitioner in Scotland to offer the treatment.
