Today, after weeks of allowing my parents to borrow money, I got a check for $2000. I took it to the bank only to find out it was fake. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that my parents are 28,000 dollars in debt and that my bank account has $27.17 in it. They took my money to help pay their debt. FML
Today, it was the day that I had been waiting for weeks to arrive: I finally finished the hiring process for my new job… Only to find out not only my paycheck, but the job itself was fake. Thanks Indeed, my first new bank account after years of debt, my disability, and my will to live greatly appreciate it. FML
Today, I found out why I haven't been getting my bank statements for the past couple of months. My parents have been hiding them from me, because they've been stealing from it. FML
Today, my mother asked me if she could borrow $200. Being the lovely daughter I am, I gave her my bank card to withdraw it herself. She gambled it away and maxed my bank account out. I had $1500 saved. FML
Today, I was working as a cashier at a restaurant. When I receive $50 and $100 bills I am required to have a manager check to make sure they are not counterfeit. Every manager I found yelled at me to find another manager because they were busy. Frustrated, I just accepted the bill. It was fake. FML
Today, I learned that the gentleman who found my wallet was not satisfied with the $300 cash and forged a check for a washer and dryer. I found out when I checked my account. It cleared. FML
Today, my dad sent me $200 by mail, only to mail it to the wrong person. So now some random person is getting $200 from my dad. FML
Today, after weeks of asking, I was finally given my debit card back from my parents. They’ve spent over $1000 and now I’m scared to know how much I have left. There was no mention of a reimbursement either. FML
Today, I found out that the $200 I reluctantly gave to my mother so she could rent a house was paid to a scammer. Now she wants to live with me, in my one bedroom apartment. FML
Today, I was notified by my bank that the government stimulus check I had deposited last week had been returned. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

deadbeat parents never lend money to people that live in trailers
FFML_314 12
What in Gods name, makes you think they live in a trailer? Way to stereotype. I'm not sure if you're even aware of what that means, but I'm assuming you don't like it very much when people automatically assume you're an idiot for being blonde or a **** for bending over and showing off your cleavage.

I'm gonna assume ur a bitch
FFML_314 12
Why would you assume, when it's something I admit? That hurt. I'm going to go cry in my Alphabet Soup now.
FFML_314 12
From you I would expect a lot more of an insult than that. Pitiful.

You should file fraud charges. Passing a known fake check is illegal.

maybe her parents need help with bills and don't have they money. I help my parents I pay the cell phone bill and every month or 2 I pay cable, landline, Internet, and cell phone bill for them since the times are tough.

your parents raised you for 18 years, which includes food, clothes, etc. Letting the borrow money when they need it is like returning the favor.
Eyou 0
you should let them keep the money its respectful
letmeinplease 0
^^ So how respectful was it for the parents to give her a fake cheque? Lending your parents money if they need it is a great thing to do, but I'm having none of this 'you owe them' crap- they CHOSE to have kids, or were too careless to avoid it.

41, ur parents aren't doing u a favor by feeding and clothing u. that's their job. if they don't do it there are consequences. but I do agree that op should leave his parents b about the money. or at least chill til they have a chance to pay back the money since they only were borrowing money for 2 weeks.

I agree I mean I help my parents but they have a job and they should be able to keep themselves going and they expect the same from me.

Well, as we all know, it's the thought that counts. They've done their part. They're in the clear now. Tough luck sir/ma'am.
