Newport-News Catalog made a big mistake with a credit card and now im being accused of fraud Hampton Virginia
Sitting home one day I get a call from the local DA office telling me I used someone's credit card for a newport news purchase, well speigel same company.
I went in to talk only to be interrigated and put down. I explained I dont understand how this happened because I used my credit card. They told me I was lying. I suddenly felt like I was watching a episode of Law and order only I was the accused.
I explained that I would not do this to anyone because I had it done to me when I lost my credit card someone used it to purchase lobster. Wow I cant even afford that.
They insisted I was lying. So I contacted Newport News and told them they need to straighten this out. Im still wating. This was over a month ago. The ironic part is I dont even have the clothes I was suposed to have charged. UPS is claiming they were left at my front door.
Furthermore I dont even wear the type of clothing that I was suposed to have like a halter top....please Im 51 years old. This was very scary for me as I have never been called in a Da's office before. I would not even take a pair of sunglasses from a dollar store. I put the glassed on my head as my hands were full forgetting they were there went to my car, when I realized they were there I went right back in and paid for them. Got a strange look but did the honest thing.

I too, was accused of using anothers card to purchase merchandise. I used my account andwhen I received the merchandise it arrived at my house , with my name on it. However, the second bill went to another address which happened to actually be a relative. When I called Newport News they said the acount was definitely mine (I already had the account) but when I called World Financial Bank to see why my bill went elsewhere, they said the account was in someone else's name and social security number.
I was told to open a similar account and they would transfer the charges to my new account---this just don't sound right. I took their advice and went on the website in an attempt to do this but found out there was no such account for World Financial Bank ,only the account for which I already had. They said they couldn't transfer the amount into this account, as they were different kinds of accounts.
Now I nor my relative know what to do as the account is listed under his credit and fortunately for me he was able to cancel criminal charges after he found out this was linked to my name. But this doesn't solve the fact that this is still on his credit and I can't help but wonder if I am getting unwarranted suspicious side way looks from my relative. I have never done or would I ever do anything like this. I too,was a victim of identity theft and am still battling to get my credit back right.
Is there anyone out there that may be able to offer some advice or solutions because this is stressing me out and I don't know if other situations such as this will come up.
