I had been dating this person for over a year and was getting ready to break up with her. She came up and stayed over a couple of weeks ago and then the following Thursday she called to inform me that she was going to Indiana with her sister. She was supposed to call me and let me know when she got back. That was supposed to have been on the following Sunday. I have not heard from her yet. I have called and left 2 messages this week on her cell and gotten no response yet. Here's the problem. On Wednesday of this week, I tried to use my Visa debit card and the sale was declined. I called the bank and there had been 2 internet sales amounting to almost $700.00 done that day. I had them cut the card off. I am pretty sure she stole my account # off my card. I still have the card. She is the only one that has had access to the card besides me. I filed a police report for fraud. I gave her as a suspect. Do you think it was wrong to suspect her?

It is a possiblity that she is the culprit.
What exactly was bought on the Internet with your card?
What is the shipping address where the Items were to be shipped?
Good Luck

You are not wrong to suspect her. Just keep in mind that anyone else, IE: someone at a restaurant, other places you have used the card, etc., could have also taken the number off the card. You should get the names of the companies that the internet sales were done at from the bank, and see if you can get a shipping address or any information from those companies so you know who bought the items.

Sounds like she did it, but unfortunately the police and legal system won't help much, I don't think.
I had a similar situation with cash and a camera that were stolen a few weeks after a roommate moved out. He's the only one who could have come in the house with my 2 dogs and not shown any signs of forced entry. He "gave" his key back but keys can easily be copied, U know.
Police just wrote a report and nothing else.
I hope your credit card compnay will help you.

No, there is nothing wrong with giving the police your guess. The credit card company will take even more seriously than the police. It's there money. I would expect to never really know what happened. You'll probably never hear from her again and the credit card company will probably eat the loss and raise your rate the next time they can.

No...if she was the only other person that could have had access to your #. The police will sort it out. If she is guilty then she deserves to be prosecuted. The lack of her answering your calls would probably be my first clue that she was avoiding you for a reason.

no... sounds like a prime suspect to me, what with the "disappearance" and all. just to play the devil's advocate, though your number could have been lifted easily at a restaurant or online.
sorry that it had to happen to you, good luck, tho!

i wouldnt feel bad at all. if anything i would get in contact with the detective who is handling ur case and follow up with him and see whats going on. I would aLSO TRY CALLING HER FROM A DIFFERENT NUMBER or a blocked number to see if she will answer and admit to it. slimy *****!

No because she probably did it out of spite. You said yourself that no one else has access to that card.

Um no it sounds like she did it. If she didnt then they will find out and no harm done. It sounds like she is trying to avoid you.
