First of all I just want to say I cannot make this up. My fiancés brother just went to jail for shooting a B.B. gun at a Taco Bell window because they didn’t give him “the correct change”, very stupid I know. Her mother asked her to co-sign on a loan to bail him out, obviously she said no. Her mother had one of her credit cards and has apparently been using it for months without her knowledge. A lot of charges on the card talking to her brother in jail is how we found out. Recently she tried to get it back and her mother wouldn’t give it to her. She originally had it to “help build her credit” about a year ago. I didn’t know about this. The statements have been going to her moms address from where she lived before we moved into our own place. Her mother finally gave the card back yesterday and the balance was over $1100+. She also asked my fiancé to do a cash advance for almost $2000 to help bail him out and we said no. Now she’s saying she will not pay for the balance on the card and has blocked our numbers. Because we won’t bail him out of jail. We have called the bank and closed the card. Reported it to the fraud department and will file a police report if no response from her mother within the next few days.
I would like to add it is just her name on the card, not her mother’s. I did not know about this or I wouldn’t have let it happen. She trusted her mother too much I guess.
Has anyone experienced something similar to this? What are our best options?
