Okay, so this is the story so you can understand it fully and i can get the right answers.
Me and my friend were at a guys house and they were on ectasy. The kid told us before we got there he would give us gas money because we didnt have any to come to his house in the 1st place. so after being at his house drinking and hangin out we wanted to leave. We asked him for the gas money and he wouldnt give it to us. We were feeling uncomfortable and just wanted to leave and we saw that his wallet was on the table. So we took it.. left and went right the the gas station down the street. we used his debt card and paid for the gas at the pump, we decided we wanted ciggs and went inside to buy them… after we left we were pissed at the guy because he was one of our good friends and he was being a complete jerk also he stole 200 from my brother a month before so we thought we could get him back. We thought maybe we could get some stuff at walmart.. filled up the shopping cart tried to pay and it didnt go thru.. we figured he didnt have enough money considering we were trying to purchase 400 worth of stuff. so we decided to leave and proceeded to go home. We thought we should try ONE more time.. at CVS grabbed shampoos and makeup and it went through.. but only spend 100 somthing. 3months later i get a call from a detective calming they have video evidence of me and my friend and trying to interagate me on the phone. i denied everything and that was it, he couldnt get ahold of my friend but i did. and told her that he was trying to get ahold of me.. she told me to tell him we dont talk anymore so it might be hard to get ahold of her. So the detective kinda just left me alone after that.. he called acouple more times asking to talk to my friend but i went to a lawyer and had him call the police to tell him to stop get in contact with me without him. What can me and my friend get charged with and could it be really bad?.. this is our first time weve ever been introuble. let me know what you think about it..
THANKS!!

I know someone who is currently in the process of a lawsuit and is faking the whole thing. This person is selling their prescription drugs, being active in sports but says that they have a serious injury that prevents them from being able to work, or even move a certain part of their body. Who do I contact or call to report their wrongdoings? I want to do it anonymously…Thanks

Should women be banned from serving on juries?

I am making this since some jerk got my last Nancy Grace thread that I directed at Nancy Grace-lover Catherine N before I saw her answer. Women are the ones that call in every night praising Grace and her show, so they obviously can’t make un-biased opinions based on the trial given, but will instead go on what Nancy Grace says if she is commenting on the trial. Grace is a rude and annoying, self-righteous liar and fraud who has been caught lying(the duke-lacrosse case)and runs when the truth comes out. Not everyone who gets accused of a crime is actually guilty you know, many people have been freed and their convictions overturned by DNA evidence, the real culprit coming forward and confessing and corrupt and tainted prosecutions. Appeals courts have also overturned some of Grace’s convictions and criticized Grace’s handling of the case for playing loose with ethics and withholding evidence.
If women cannot make a decision on a jury based on the trial given like they are required to do, then they shouldn’t be allowed to serve.

Please help, check fraud misunderstanding!!?

This is a situation that my friend is going through. Please, no bashing or anything, but wed like to know some real options and real information. Thanks

Seth and Jin were in business together and had a business account that was under both the name of the business and Seth’s name. Jin was in charge of filing taxes and did them, and sent them in. Recently Jin moved out of the country to go back to school in his home country and sold his half of the business to Seth. Before leaving, Jin wrote a couple checks to himself from the account mentioned above. Now, Jin and Seth did talk about this and it was not a problem. It has been a few months now, and Jin just found out that the IRS did not recieve the tax return and the company is being audited. Seth, thinking that Jin "screwed" him, pressed charges for fraudulent check writing.

Seth is convinced that Jin betrayed him, but he did not.

What are his options? What is the penalty? Would it help to get a lawyer?
The fraud is that Jin wrote and cashed checks under an account with his only his partners name and the name of the company. Seth was aware and okay with the fact that Jin did that under the promise that the money would be paid back, but it looks suspicious now because Jin cashed the checks, then moved out of the country, and now the IRS is auditing the business saying the tax returns never came in. It looks bad on Jins part, but its all coincidence. The tax forms obvioudly got lost in the mail.

Possible credit card fraud?

My best friend might be in some trouble and we’re trying to figure this out.
Her employer issued her an Amex corporate card. Although it was against company policy to use the card for personal reasons periodically she did. She had all the intentions to pay it back since she wasn’t trying to loose her job over it. She had a personal balance on the card of 1K when suddenly she got laid off. She stopped paying on the card and since she was now broke she she took out cash from the Amex and maxed it out at 6K. Three weeks later she received a visa corporate card in the mail. Apparently her employer switched credit card companies and for whatever reason they sent her one too although she no longer worked there. Desparately, she used that card to pay her rent and utilies several months out and she figured in time she’d work out a repayment deal with the credit card companies once she was back working or something. She ran up 11k dollars on the visa card. Her ex-employer is now investigating the matter. Is this credit card fraud? Is the employer liable? Can the employer press charges – If so what? What penalties could she be facing – jail, probation, etc? The cards were in her name but she did know that company policy was to not use the cards for personal reason. She has an irrelevant misdeamor from 1996. Other than that she’s clean. She lives in IL. Serious answers ONLY please. Thank you.

That bank distorted millions of dollars from both brokers and investors, but yet they get a settlement, but the amount they stole was a few hundred billion dollars, and yet you download one DVD o rmusic file they want to throw you in jail for 5-10 years. As far as I’m concern these people including the president and the CEO of that bank should be executed upon conviction.
Isn’t fraud supposed to be time in jail?

Legal Advice for Gym Membership?

On 3/1/10 I signed up for a gym membership with Snap Fitness, which is a 24-hour gym. I liked the idea of a 24-hour gym because my schedule is not like most people’s 9-5, I usually do not get off work til around 1 am, the membership was .95 a month for both my sister and I. I told the gym employee that I was not sure how long I would be able to go to the gym, I was planning on moving within a year, so he told me that it would be month-to-month, which little did I know he wrote 1 year on my contract. Fast-forward to about a month and a half ago, Snap Fitness was bought out by a company named Super 5 Express Fitness. This gym was no longer 24-hours, it was only open from 7am-9pm, which was clearly not going to work for me, it was also only a month for members. I went into the gym and explained my situation, which they said there was nothing they could do for me. I went home and dug out my contract with Snap Fitness, and in the terms it states "Club Unavailability- If any of the services or facilities described in this agreement become unavailable or are no longer fully operational, I am only liable for the portion that was available for the public to use while this agreement is in effect…" Well, in my opinion, the club is no longer fully operational and the services are no longer available because I signed up for a 24-hour gym, which is stated in the contract. I went back in the gym and explained and, they again gave me the same run around that there was nothing they could do. Well, I gave up and felt that I needed to pay the 0 cancellation fee, but decided to freeze my account for a month so I could save up the money. Fast-forward to 2 days ago, I looked at my bank statement after I froze my account and I was still charged the .95 so I went back in furious. The employee told me that there was nothing he could do and he would have the manager call me. Well, I never received a call so I went in today and demanded to speak the manager and he told me he would put the money back in my account and would give me 2 free personal training sessions. "Free personal training sessions?!?!?! I do not even go to the gym any longer." Then the manager said that he would reverse my refund and keep the .95 and that he was trying to do me a favor. Isn’t that fraud? What can I do? I would just pay the 0 cancellation fee but I do not want to give in to them. I was paying 44.95 for a 24-hour gym, how is it that everyone else in that gym is only paying 9? Is there anything I can do to stand up to these monsters?

STUCK IN A FRAUD OF 8 LAKHS. PLEASE HELP.?

My parents have a room in MHADA, Borivali area. A lady, who deals in MHADA rooms told us that she will sell our room, and will get us a FLAT in return, all we have to do is give her the amount we will get when we sell the room. And plus we will have to pay some more amount for new flat.
Agreeing to this, we sold the room, she gave us 6 lakhs cash for it. Next day she took those 6 lakhs back plus we gave her 2 lakhs more, total 8 lakhs. She said we will get a flat in a month. It has been 2 years now, she has not returned a single penny of those 8 lakhs, nor gave us a new flat.
I however, have the possession for that MHADA room, but she has taken the papers and signatures from my mother to transfer the ownership.
That ladys phone is off, no sign of her. All i have is on a stamp paper written that she has taken 8 lakhs from us, with her signature, and some blank cheques that she has given to us.
If we deposit those cheques, court will ultimately give her time to pay back, which she will never do, and she told us upfrontly that if u complain to the cops, your money is gone, she said she will give a share to cops and they will never investigate further.
After spending 8 lakhs, we dont have more amount to spend for hiring a lawyer and fighting a case, because ultimately she has kept her collar clean as its nowhere mentioned on paper that we sold her the room, its just mentioned that she has taken cash from us for some personal use.
WHAT IS THE SOLUTION FOR THIS SITUATION NOW? HOW CAN I GET MY MONEY BACK?

That’s thousands of paper shredders working non stop at Acorn offices around the country to destroy evidence enabling prostitutes, tax evaders, child pornographers, illegal smuggling of minors for forced prostitution, voter fraud, pay offs, and Rico activities. That’s organized crime but in a civil manner. Can we call this Obamacorn? Obama himself paid Acorn 0,000 for illegal vote gathering. How many millions of illegal votes were cast? How many underage prostitute’s were housed by Acorn? How many minors were smuggled in for forced prostitution? Five videos around the country show systemic evil and corruption.

I remember when I asked the finance guy what is my final price and he circled the final price, but yet the one they gave me had no circle and the price went up 2000 more than I agreed… but I have no proof what can I do??? and they refuse to show me the original…
I would like to avoid getting a lawyer, so in short of getting one what can I do????

Would Obama REALLY “Change” Much?

Consider his actual record:

1. He voted against the capping of credit card interest at 30% (because, he said later) he wanted the cap to be lower. But voting against the cap made the sky rather than 30% the limit. Only idiots will fall for such rhetoric. I believe McCain supported the bill. Hillary supported the bill as well.

2. He voted for the Bush-Cheney energy bill that was stoked with major pay-offs, perks and goodies for the oil companies, and did nothing for consumer. McCain opposed the bill. Hillary also opposed it.

3. He voted for the FISA spy bill. (Hillary voted against it.) Starting to get the picture, neophyte liberal fools?

4. He voted for the bailout of Wall Street, which had nothing to do with saving the economy and everything to do with a massive transfer of public wealth from the majority, working-class citizens to the speculators on Wall Street largely responsible for their misery and home loss. Mind you, he supported and voted for the single largest legislative transfer of public funds to private interests in the history of the country. How is that "change we can believe in?" That’s change RHETORIC he can DECEIVE in.

5. He is the second largest recipient of funds from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

6. He has no coherent plan to address the economic crisis. He has no plans to rescue the actual homeowners facing foreclosure and bankruptcy. Instead, he only has plans for the rescue of the financial elite, the very parasites that preyed on American homeowners in the first place, and whose money will actually save these scoundrels.

7. He supports the reinstatement of the draft. Recent statements make this very clear

8. He will increase military spending.

9. He caved to nuclear power when crafting a bill to protect people in IL from radiation.

10. He never stands his ground. In fact, he has no ground. He abdicates before you can say "boo!" He’s easily frightened.

Obama is not the lesser of two evils. He may actually be worse because he will lull people to sleep, esp. liberals who think that he represents their interests….He in no way represents their interests–that is, unless they work on Wall Street or are corporate stock-holders or CEOs. That’s Obama’s true constituency, not the "people." Never has a fraud been so pulled over on the American public. Here’s a guy who says one thing and does quite the reverse, every single time. But the liberals who love him just care about the SOUNDS that he makes, rather than ACTION that he takes. The latter is all bad.
I agree: he will gut the middle class and increase the dependent class of poor people, thereby strengthening his and his party’s grip on the people. The VERY rich will get richer, and the poor will grow in number. The middle class will be eroded at a quickened pace. This has been the plan for decades and the smiling black man is just the guy for the job, because no one will suspect him.
By the way, I am NOT a Republican. I had been a Democrat for twenty years.

However, I am now no longer a Democrat. I am not voting for this fraudulent party any longer. I am not voting for either of the major party candidates. I may vote for McKinney; that should prove that I’m not voting on racial lines.
I should ask, "what in his actual political RECORD shows that he will change anything?

and spent it immediately and I didn’t even sign up for their pyramid scheme!! Or do you think they would arrest me and say I filled out a false report? We all know how the government operates.
flower- it is not always true that you get more money back than you put into social security. not only does it depend on how long you live and when you retire, but you are not factoring inflation into the equation. the dollars that the government stole from me were worth far more than the money you get back. the dollar has devalued 95% since the inception of the federal reserve. i do not limit my anger toward social security, i am against all government programs. i believe social security steals more money than it gives back to society, i believe social security is making elderly people poor. before medicare the average elderly family paid less than 2000 dollars a year (adjusted for inflation to 1999 dollars) yet in 1999 the average family spent over 4000 dollars. medicare didnt help old people and neither does social security. do you really think people would just die when they turn 65 if these programs didnt exist?
