Cifas Marker
I am basically the victim and I get the CIFAS Marker. I am young and clueless, I did not realise I was doing a bad thing, I am 17 now turning 18 this month. My "friend" said "Can my friend send you money so you can send it to me, its not letting him send it to me. And for doing the favour you can keep £20." and I thought this was harmless so I agreed, and then Monzo closed my account. And now Lloyds are also closing my account that I've had for around 2 or 3 years. Is there any banks that will accept me with this marker, and is there any way for it to be removed without my parents knowing I had it? Also does anyone know if this will affect an ESTA application?

It always amazes me that there are people who still fall for this sort of money laundering scam, given how many stories like yours there are online.
The way to have the CIFAS marker removed without your parents finding out is to do nothing, as CIFAS markers have a limited life and are removed automatically once they expire. Unfortunately, that could take up to six years.
Do you know what type of CIFAS you have, or how long it will last? If not, contact cifas.org.uk and ask.
Fortunately, it won't impact your ESTA application.
