Today, I learned why so much money has been missing from my credit card account. My boyfriend stole it, and has been buying toys for his 3 children. I never knew he had kids. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I turned on my boyfriend's computer and saw pictures of all of my credit cards, front and back, and several of my parent's credit cards. I looked in his e-mail and found receipts for items which had been billed to me and delivered to him, including golf clubs and my birthday gift. FML

Today, I found out why I haven't been getting my bank statements for the past couple of months. My parents have been hiding them from me, because they've been stealing from it. FML

Checks and balances

Today, I found out my husband has racked up $3000 on our credit cards, and ruined my credit score. When confronted, all he had to say was, "Well you didn't tell me when you bought that ten-dollar t-shirt, so I guess we're even." FML

Today, my boyfriend started a six month jail stint. The last thing he gave me was his phone, on which I discovered $30,000 in credit card debt. Why didn’t I go after the guy who went to dental uni? FML

Today, my fiancé and I got a joint account recently, but when I got home he was on the phone to the bank claiming our credit card number was cloned, because of the ridiculous number of random purchases. I checked my online banking. It was all just my normal buying habits. FML

Today, my grown up, unemployed boyfriend stole 70 dollars from my wallet and tried to hide it in two different places in case he needed to ditch me and go out by himself. He got angry when I confronted him and stormed out. He feels perfectly entitled. I work, pay rent and buy food. FML

Today, I learned why my credit score is so low. My mom stole my identity almost three years ago. Her excuse? "You didn't need good credit for anything anyways". FML

Today, I had three sheriffs come to my door, turns out my boyfriend of three years went on a robbing spree last week and brought the stolen merchandise back to my apartment. The best part: He used my car while committing the robberies. FML

This is one of those situations where a 'dump him' is well deserved. Change your credit card information, lock him out, and file charges against him for whatever he stole from you. Manipulative thieves deserve little sympathy.

For your sake, I really hope you hadn't known him that long.

Ah the thieving liar. Usually I wouldn't say this: dump his ass. However, it applies in this case. Hope you can get the fraudulent charges credited back to your account OP.

I'm pretty sure this is why they invented background checks. Either that, or Facebook. Whether or not the information that he had children would be there, I don't know, but it would have been worth a shot.

How does one ever become involved with such a loser who unfortunately has already reproduced?

I worked retail. We lose as merchants if we don't check the ID of the person using the card. Retract the charges, with fraud you could pay 0-50 dollars of that. And dump him. Less you are ok with him having other kids. For all you know he is paying child support on them, hence the stealing, or will cheat on you to make a 4th kid. He needs to keep himself in his damn pants! Or in just one woman's pants.

OP, why didn't you or your bank/company notice abnormal charges to your card? You should have been on top of that. And for the idiots who share their bank information with their boyfriends/girlfriends, all I can say is YDI when they take your cash. That's not information you should be sharing. You want to share funds, get a separate joined account and keep your own private. It's better to be safe rather than sorry.
