Strange Outcome Over A Domestic Dispute

[Judge]

Spiteful woman leaves a $5000 tip to server to get back at her boyfriend. Weird story to read about, especially given the legal ramifications of what she did. She denied the purchase to creditors claiming it was fraudulent even though it was she who made the purchase and provided the tip. Oops. Busted!

At least the server still got the tip!

Weird.

I suppose what I found most amusing about this is that the woman appeared to be completely oblivious to her act of fraud towards a creditor. It's true, credit card companies routinely absorb some huge losses over circumstances beyond their financial control. But this ain't one of them.

It's true. Don't ever tell them that your dog ate your credit card.

They'll just bite you. -The creditor. Not the dog.

Funny to recall one of my most helpful online acquaintances. Ran into a someone who worked for one of the major credit card companies. Gave me a lot of insight in how they operate and what they expect from their customers. And some pointers on how and why your credit rating may go up and down...which is often quite a mystery to a great many people.

interesting. Why didn't she just use the card to bug a ticket home? Well, not she's going to be there awaiting court dates, etc. lol

The logic in this story escapes me.
