I parked in the disabled bay at the Endoscopy Unit of the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading. There was a large, official notice saying disabled drivers must contact APCOA blue badge portal using the QR code displayed, which I did.
I was then asked for £1 and to enter my credit card details which I stupidly did. I then found that my credit card had been debited £1 and £59.99 by gmz-utpa which is a company in the USA which is somehow perpetrating a scam for a monthly subscription. Fortunately I was suspicious and have stopped these payments and reported this as fraud to my credit card company. This is appalling targeting of the vulnerable which needs to be stopped
