She took out £9,000, followed by two payments of £2,500. The real Katie, 33, who is currently enjoying a fling with rugby ace Danny Cipriani, only learnt of the fraud when her credit cards were rejected during a shopping trip in Brighton. A source told a newspaper: "Katie tried to make a couple of purchases. When she went to pay by credit card, her PIN kept getting declined and the card was eventually blocked – much to her embarrassment. "She tried to pay with three different cards and the same happened with all three. "After calling her bank and speaking directly to her branch manager, she was informed they had received a call from a woman posing as her 24 hours previously who had cancelled the cards. "Katie then asked what the balance of one of her accounts was and informed it was around £14,000 less than the amount she was expecting. A £9,000 withdrawal had been made, followed by two £2,500 ones, and none of them were by her." The source added items were ordered using Katie's credit card details and real address for billing purposes, but were to be delivered to an address in the north. HSBC's fraud department have contacted the police who are trying to track down the person responsible. Investigating officers have obtained CCTV footage of a Jordan look-a-like attempting to withdraw cash. Katie said: "It's really horrible. All I know is that police have footage of these people pretending to be me – I don't even know if it is a man or a woman. "Obviously my ego hopes it was, at least, a female impostor."</p>
