One almost-spouse stealing the other almost-spouse's money is never serious. Right?

If they had any joint credit cards, she'd better check NOW to see if they were maxed out. Did he do address change orders with the Post Office, banks, car loan company, gasoline cards, other credit institutions? What other messes/surprises did he leave for her and how long will it take the full news of those potential surprises to get to her?

Yeah, she's got ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to consider here because he is SOOOO trustworthy and stuff like the worst case scenarios NEVER happen.

If you agree, might you care to buy some ocean front property in Nebraska?





I'll say it again. I don't think it's that serious. As for your advice PDX it's great, from a lawyer's standpoint. Which is from what I remember, your profession.

KoKo is right, though.



Thanks Diva.

The bottomline is this. It would cost you FAR too much time and effort to go after the guy legally. The bank won't assist you because they consider it too petty. It's a victimless crime. Everyday business for the bank. It sucks that it happend to your gf, but like you said, chalk it up as experience.
