Great Day in the Neighborhood! NOT!
Well, NOW I've seen it all!
You KNOW it's a great day when you come home to a mailbox full of letters from collectors....THANKS TO THE THEIVES WHO TOOK YOUR PURSE AND LIFE!.......See, now this sucks! Thanks to these ***#@ who took my stuff, I get to come home, sit here and type all these lame letters to prove that I wasn't out writing bad checks. Damn! Nice world we live in folks....SOMETHING about this whole "ME BEING THE VICTIM" thing is getting lost on these collection companies and bank folks and phone folks...Pretty much everyone, EXCEPT the CA DMV..They helped me...SAD. I have yet to actually see any of the money the bank TOLD me they sent me. Now, I have to prove, with a notarized affidavit that I didn't get the cashier's check and cash it..Hmm WITHOUT A Valid ID on a $45,000 cashier's check..NOT LIKELY!...Delightful Bank I made a horrible error of conducting business with. So now, 3 weeks later, I have NOTHING except a mailbox full of letters. Oh, Yeah! Chevron..They got me a new card 3 days later. :) Car and Gas..I'm good! NICE! Hmmmm..Time for a Vacation...IF I HAD MY MONEY...LOL Thanks for the vent..Felt a little crazy there for a minute.... LOL Jennifer aka - Jane of all Trades :mad: |
That sucks, don't worry. I got a call by my manager tonight. I sold $6000 worth of merchandise the last week and my co-worker sold $10,000 of stuff. I get called in tonight when I hoped to have a nice evening with the ex (lol Not bloody likely but still...), anyway, apparently the $16,000 was purchased on Fake Credit Cards, or Stolen ones. So now my *** is on the line, and everything. I have to be investigated by head office, banks, maybe police. I am not looking for a fun filled week. Sorry that is my vent and only cause I'm tired am I cutting it short. They say it may come out of my wallet. I'd like to see them try that.
Anyone help me on this situation who knows what is the worst that can happen to me? I don't even care if I get fired right now. I just want out of this messy situation. §am. |

Taking care of business

I would guess that your personal liability will rest on what kind of ID you required and what kind of record you made of the ID the thieves gave for these big purchases. If it's on file and you followed normal procedures you should be O.K. If you got sloppy and didn't verify everything correctly, you could have a problem. Your employer and the police will be looking for a connection between you and the buyers with the fake/stolen credit cards. If there is one, you're toast, if not, you can probably skate but even so, your job is probably in jeopardy unless you are really well-liked and a valuable employee with a perfect record. It's a 'trust issue'. Assuming you're perfectly innocent here I would think that once everything has been checked out, you'll be O.K., legally. Thieves make purchases with stolen or fake credit cards all the time, unfortunately, and low-level store employees are not held liable for the losses nor should they be, as long as all normal verification procedures were followed. Don't be too defensive but don't let yourself be bullied, either. If you did nothing wrong, say so and don't let anyone involved make you feel guilty for what some low-life thieves did. You're as much a 'victim' as the store. Remind them of that and be sure that your employment record is cleared of any negative remarks concerning this incident. If not, getting another job could be tough. You have to look out for your interests here and I wish you well in doing so. I only regret that I can't offer more help at this time. Keep us informed as to what's happening with this. Best of luck to you. |
Re: Taking care of business
Thanks, that is appreciated. Sorry Jenn I've stole your thread. :( hehehe... this is the low down. I was never truely trained on how to accpect Visa or Mastercard in our store. I work at a very little store, I'll take a picture of it tonight if I remember. We only have 4 employees and pretty much all of us are new. The other guy and I are really new. Like I've only been there for like 3-4 weeks along with the other guy. And the manager has been there for less then 3 months. Now all the stolen cards have been used agaist the new guys. Honestly at this point I don't even care if I loose my job, I just don't want to be charged for neglegence (which he said was on my part). The job is just a part time job for me to earn some cash. If I loose it I can get a job in many other places as I've been offered a few already, but this location was convient, and it's in a mall so I get to watch the beautiful woman walk by all day. =) I think my mistake was not double checking the signature on a few of the purchases. Which I kick myself for now, but I wasn't even really trained. It was pretty much here ya go. I was closing the store all by myself the 3rd shift. I don't believe I will be using this job on my resume though. lol I can't see much good coming out of it. But it's okay my other jobs I left on excellent terms, + I worked for the goverment so everything is great with them. Well I work at 5 so it's going to be a fun filled evening of crap. :(

That's OK Sam
That's OK Sam, since you're my Bud, I'll allow you to steal my "thunder"!
I'll ICQ ya later..... Chris, the only way this can get better is if these losers make it your way (last stop they made was Vacaville, CA $150.00 there) and you can do me the honor of a "physical makeover" on these freaks...Damn.. and Yes! at least the the car does handle much better now that the strut tower brace made it under the hood, instead of in the trunk. :) :mad: Jenn |
