An 'Account Freezing Order' (AFO) is a UK court order that restricts access to funds in bank accounts suspected of involvement in criminal activity. Organisations such as HMRC must show reasonable suspicion that the money is linked to criminal activity. https://t.co/tbR6if488n

Agencies such as the Police, NCA, SFO & HMRC can apply to a magistrates court for AFOs to suspend/block money in UK bank or e-money accounts.
