Hi all,
I am here on vacation and found out that my boyfriend has been using my credit card and debit card without me knowing.
The sum of money amounts to nearly $2000 dollars in 4 days from the 3rd - 7th April.
The early hours of Friday he also cleared off with my passport, all my cards, any money in the apartment, ipod, camera and various tennis shoes.
Of course I cancelled my cards or he would have run it up to the limit for sure.
He did return my passport to me late Saturday after I called one of his friends in the US to talk some sense into him and he returned the cards too (no use now)
I never gave him the cards to use or the pin number and had no idea he was using it until I saw a friend in town who told me she had seen him at the Banco Progreso with a card getting money.
I can only conclude he watched me while I was taking money from tha ATM and remembered my number.
He returned the passport a day later and my cards but the damage had already been done.
I had him arrested late wednesday evening when he came back to my apartment and started getting aggressive.
I filed a complain and Thursday was sent to speak to the Fiscal here in Sosua.
She was totally on my side and sign for his arrest and to be sent to the Fiscal in Puerto Plata.
On arrive at Puerto Plata things started to swing back in his favour when the police officer that took him there found him a lawyer straight away and they started talking together.
He was seen first without me and then when i was summonded to speak the man there didn,t want to listen to anything I had to say.
Saying because we were together there was nothing he could do for me , only get a protection order for me (which I pick up Wednesday)
I can only conclude that money changed hands and he was released.
Any advice good or bad would be great.
Of course lesson is learn,t, don,t really need anyone to say how silly I have been.
Thanks to all in advance.
