Just my words, I don’t mean to scare you and you are probably OK since this happened in April but you might want to get your locks changed. Now whoever stole your purse has your address and house keys.

I have seen this woman working at Food Giant. She was/is working in the office. So she, took it upon herself to take this card. No one else my have even been “careless”. Which is also sad! She is a thief and a con-artist. Clearly she conned the manager there to believe she was a trust worthy person. The Love of money is the root of all evil!!!! Sad she wasn’t caught after the 1st money order, instead of the 15th. In the end, she told the truth, but would she have had she not been caught? I don’t think so.

I am also a victim of my own careless, while on lunch on April 2nd I left my purse outside on the ground at the end of the walk at Dollar General in Century, I wasn’t use to taking it out with me and just forgot about when I started talking with a customer anyway it was sometime later that I thought about and yes it was gone, the only thing of value in it was my mothers rings she left me when she passed away, I had my birth cert/ebt/debit/drivers lic/ss card/pictures of my late husband/which so far I have be able to replace. It would be nice if the party that took the purse would mail back the ID’S a police report was taken due to the rings(which are engraged) so far they are not turned up at any pawn shops. So I feel for the person whose card was misused. I myself feel well like it’s hard to say,there were personal things in there. my house and car keys and it maybe wrong but I wish nothing but the worst for the party that took the purse and decided not to do the right thing.

To those who are say ing no worries the credit card company pays for it. That is correct but in the mean time we all pay for the loss in the form of fees and high interest rates. Then we complain about the rates. Go figure!

Surely the misplacing of the card by the owner and the mishandling of it by the finder doesn’t provide an excuse for this person to take possession of it unlawfully. I hope that is not what is being inferred.

The credit card company takes the loss. The victim has zero liability unless she or someone in her household received benefits or goods (which she obviously didn’t in this case). That’s why credit card company’s require a police report – once the report is filed, the money is refunded to the victim and the credit card company is listed as a 2nd. victim by taking the loss. The credit card company insure’s charges are pressed against the thief.

sw- whoever was in control/possession of the possibly lost card that was found and turned in, had a responsibility to keep it reasonably secured until the owner was located- thats what i would expect if my card was lost and found.
