Ripping Off an Ex

The plaintiff says the defendant is his ex-girlfriend. He alleges she went into his bank account after they broke up and used his money to pay her credit card. He’s suing for what he’s owed. The defendant insists this was money she was owed after paying for her ex’s car repairs and other things. She’s countersuing for money still owed and defamation.

[@kristhemermaid3169]

I mean I would already be on first name basis with my neighbours in Canada before my husband would even notice I cleared our joint account 😅

[@tempgirl00711]

Sounds familiar. There are things in life that I just hate doing. Banking, checking my accounts, making appt, washing car, folding clothes, checking my mailbox, talking to bill companies. Lmao. Everything is auto pay because I don't like to spend my free time talking to strangers, people. My banking I've learned to check now. Since my account was hacked and I barely made the deadline think 60 days or 120 to file dispute.

[@RoughRaiders13]

[@allegroaffettuoso9012]

She knew exactly what was happening. She just hoped he would continue to be clueless enough about his own finances to not notice it. Which was absurd on her part, because if he ever did, she would be liable for every cent. So why take that risk, especially if it doesn’t seem that she’s hurting for money. And when she lied about the paper statements, and Judge Milian showed those were actual mailed statements, it revealed that she was duplicitous in her intent. That speaks volumes about her character. She is sneaky & conniving, and tries to hide behind her “clueless” act, but she’s really a snake. Kudos to him for moving on, and hopefully he actually pays attention from now on about his own finances.

[@AK19909]

He prob wouldn’t have noticed had he not had that new girlfriend who caught it

[@harryschneider1760]

I get what she ment about printing out statement...they used paperless so she had to call or contact a paper statement...doesn't make her rite. She still knew this guy was paying her credit card...side note..she is very pretty woman. He was lucky to have her...she just seems so sweet..definitely pretty. I'd never put her on any accounts...😊
