Today, after my two credit cards were stolen, thousands were charged before I could cancel. The thief dropped nearly $1,000 at Juicy Couture, so she/he is somewhere laughing at me in a magenta, rhinestoned "leisure suit." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out my credit card was maxed out to the penny, all thanks to purchases made on an online wine store. Apparently my mother was thirsty enough to steal from her own son. FML
Today, I was shopping in an upscale store. As I was changing, I heard one of the snobby saleswomen say to mine "You shouldn't bother. She isn't going to buy anything." Determined to "show her", I purchased everything I'd tried on. It came to around $500. My credit card was declined. FML
Today, I found that there were charges of almost 2,000 dollars on my bank account. Some asshole in Florida stole my money. I have bills and that was money I saved to buy myself a new car. FML
Today, someone stole my coat. I can only imagine their surprise when they find the $3,000 engagement ring I bought earlier. FML
Today, I found out my husband has racked up $3000 on our credit cards, and ruined my credit score. When confronted, all he had to say was, "Well you didn't tell me when you bought that ten-dollar t-shirt, so I guess we're even." FML
Today, I finally paid off the massive debt on my credit card. I came home only to find that almost everything I owned had been repossessed an hour before I paid the debt. FML
Today, I found out my identity was stolen. The person got credit cards in my name and didn't pay the bills, which has ruined my near perfect credit. The worst part about all of this is that I can't turn the person in. It's my mom, and sending her to jail wouldn't really work out for anyone. FML
Today, while at the mall, a lady dropped her credit card while in line to buy something. I came over, picked it up and gave it to her just for her to shove it in my hand and scream, "She's stealing my wallet! My wallet!" The police came. FML
Today, I finally picked up my new bank card after my old one was stolen. It took the bank six weeks and five separate orders to figure it out, on top of which they've charged me a rush fee. FML
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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

you can totally contest that. no store should allow someone to use a credit card for that much without checking the signature and ID. if they don't verify the ID, contest it with the credit card company and if they can't do anything, you can sue the store.

Actually, the credit card companies discourage stores from asking for ID. Fortunately, in the US, your liability is limited to $50 if your credit card is stolen.

How can the credit card companies be discouraging checking ID when it is the card companies that have told ever store I've worked at (and there have been far too many) that under NO circumstances is a husband to use a wife's card, a wife to use a husband's card, or any body not on the accounts at all to use any of the card. They tell you to check ID for those reasons.

Maybe they bought stuff in small amounts and it added up?

no because juicy couture is expensive! and i believe it has to be under $25 for them not to ask for ID

I would like to point out that this is wrong. Many stores have policies with credit card companies where as long as the card is signed no ID is needed. While unlikely, the company can even be fined for asking for ID on signed cards. So obviously not signing your cards, or writing SEE ID, is the best option.

Yeah, you can totally contest that purchase - plus, I'm guessing Juicy has security cameras, you might nab the bugger.

and now I can't get the horrible idea of someone running around in sweatpants with the word "juicy" across their ass in tacky rhinestones. for that, I blame you. bit hey, just tell the cops to look for the tackiest person in town and check them for your cards...
