Today, my girlfriend received a scam email about her great uncle dying and leaving her money. She not only believed it, but she also used my credit card details for it. FML

Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.

Today, I had to dump my girlfriend because of tons of trust issues that kept reappearing. Shortly afterwards, my credit card disappeared and I got to experience my first identity theft. All within 24 hours. FML
Today, and for the past 2 years, my aunt has owed me money. She just admitted that she fell for a scam, and gave the scammer more than double the amount I'd loaned her. I felt bad for her… until I realized something. When I asked how she had it to give to them, but not to pay me back, she got mad and hung up on me. FML
Today, I found out that, after offering to fill out my student aid application for me, my mother sent all of my personal information to a scam site instead. FML
Today, my fiancé and I got a joint account recently, but when I got home he was on the phone to the bank claiming our credit card number was cloned, because of the ridiculous number of random purchases. I checked my online banking. It was all just my normal buying habits. FML
Today, I found out my fiancé is in the market for a new girlfriend. How? He used my credit card to sign up for 3 dating sites. FML

Today, I found out that not only is my girlfriend already married, but she and her husband were planning some wacky scheme to steal all of my money, and run away to strike again in a new location, with new names. FML
Today, my boyfriend had always told me that his mom was dead. Apparently he just meant she’s dead to him. She’s actually a con artist. I just met her for the first time, after learning she impersonated me, stole my savings, ran up credit card debt, and bought 3 cars. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I know a Nigerian detective who can recover all your money. Send me your bank account number and routing number, and he will put the money right back into your account. YWIA.

Not to be mean, but make her pay for it. That was really stupid. She shouldn't have done that without your consent anyway.

Well why did you leave your credit card out for her to find?

Nothing. Nothing is wrong with your mind. It works exactly like it should.

Why the hell are people still falling for these scams? I thought it was common knowledge, or at the very least, common sense. FYL OP, explain to her (very slowly) that she should never give out credit card details unless she's on a secure site, and really, she shouldn't be using your damn credit card to do it. Also, see if you can get that scam mail sent straight to junk where she's less likely to see it, just in case.

Sadly, the people who usually fall for these scams are usually from poor/not as developed countries who speak very little English. I've seen it happen with my boyfriend, who moved to Australia from Iran. He only understood a few words in the email and didn't have a strong understanding of how the Internet works. I think it's sad.

I'd slap the mess out of her. Doesn't she have her own, or at least, her parents card for that? Better them than you. Also, what a moron. SMH

Yes. Let's solve this with domestic violence.

Girlfriend? You mean you're still going out with an idiot? I hope she's your ex girlfriend by now.
