I will be graduating this coming spring with a bachelor's degree in accounting. I was convicted with a felony assault charge in 2002. I was wondering if I will be able to find an accounting job when I can't pass a background check. Would changing my name make a difference? I've heard its illegal to run background checks with a social security number.

I've contacted several of the "We Buy Houses" types of sites and even though they advertise that they will give a fair price, no one even wants to give me what I owe. I owe less than appraisal.

I moved to Sydney from Birmingham(U.K) last October and have been working fulltime since. When I left the UK I owed some money on my laptop that I gave to my exGF and she promised to take care of the money I owed on it (about £387) but she didn't, so the bank (HFC bank a part of HSBC group) have been sendin me claim letters for the past 6 months because I have an active current account with HSBC, UK and they have my address in Australia. However the letters arrived too late for me to take any serious notice about paying the debt off. (like 10 days past the 'pay by/contact us' date)

Recently they sent me a letter saying my account has been transferred to a firm of debt collectors in Australia. Would this affect my credit rating in Australia?

I sent a certified letter to a company who sent me a letter stating I owed them money. It is a company I have never heard of or had an account with. They replied saying they classify my dispute as frivolous and refuse to provide any information proving it is a valid debt.

I purchased a house and about a week before closing I was told that the house that we bought had liens on them. There were number of creditors who had put the liens on the house (not one). The seller allowed me to move in without signing any paperwork on the hopes that the liens could be lifted and the transaction would go through. However, two weeks later, my lawyer informed me that he didn't think that the liens would be lifted and that he wanted me to move out and purchase another property.

To walk-away I need to have the mutual release form signed so that my deposit (20K) could be returned to me. However, the seller has apparently dissappeared and I'm unable to get the mutual release done.

What are my options? The contract is void as the house did not close. Why is my deposit stuck? I've been told that I need to contract a litigation lawyer to my deposit released which is more $$ out of my own pocket and I'm trying to avoide.

This topic was on GMA this morning while I was getting dressed. I think I did a little cheer when I found out that one company started a no-tolerance gossip ban, and has fired 3 people so far. My boss couldn't initiate this policy because everyone would be fired.

Office gossip spreads like wildfire and ruins reputations, self-esteem and is extremely damaging to peoples lives.

What's your take on it? I'm all for a no-tolerance office gossip ban.

The cashier asked me if I was interested in a Target credit card. I decline but when I later check my receipt, in big bold letters it said, "Pre-Approve!" with my name under it.

Why would Target have my credit info? I never filled out an application for a credit card.

I noticed she didnt ask my sister.....
