Answer

What should I do if I think I have sent money to a fraudster in Mallorca?

Act immediately and contact your bank to try to stop or recall the transfer. You should also report the case to the police and seek legal advice as soon as possible, because cross-border fraud can move money very quickly. If you were buying property in Mallorca, gather all emails, contracts and payment records before they are lost or altered.
