That's a federal crime. Report that to the police and your bank immediately! Next time, try immediately disabling the use of your card on your bank account immediately if it goes missing

Be patient. She said she'd be happy to pay you back in the future. I'm sure she will be joyful to return your money some day. Won't that be worth the wait?

Call the credit card about the fraudulent charges. You won't be held responsible. Also, press charges against your sister.
